I’m replacing the pilot couplers on 6 brass HOn3 loco’s for the fourth time. So, maybe 7 or 8 couplers. I’ll try to call you around 8:00pm eastern time. Ed T. 781-854-8249

I have a few Kadee N scale couplers. I would like to get more, but Kadee no longer makes them. Can someone tell me who took over Kadee’s N scale couplers and if they are still available.

I made a pick using .035 piano wire, ground to a point, then ground flat,180 degrees apart. That works better. Also, being able to see helps. Better then brail.

A couple of months ago I mounted Kadee 705’s on the pilots of all 6 of my HOn3 brass steam side rod locomotives. I use a pick to assist coupling and to uncouple. I find the 705’s mated to the 714’s to

I mounted 705’s on the pilots of my 6 brass HOn3 loco’s. I took the couplers out of the Kadee draft gear boxes, nipped off the back of the coupler, and drilled a .020 hole in the shank. Some of the en

I installed 705’s on the pilots of my 6 brass HOn3 steam loco’s. I also found them tight using a pick to uncouple with my 714’s. I do have facing siding drops and picks, but the 705/714 work better th

Started the last 2 705 pilot coupler installs today. I cut down the extended box on the pilot of my C19 and got a trimmed and drilled 705 pinned in. I started dis assembling my C25 for remotor, paint,

Steve, given your close call with the fire a while back, are you thinking about cutting the brush back to the edge of yourproperty?

I am only using the 705’s to install good working couplers on the pilots of my 6, 1970’s brass HOn3 loco’s. I have 2 boxes of the 705’s (8 couplers total) so I can screw up a couple of installs and st

so far I’ve converted my K28 and C&S 2-6-0 to 705’s. The K was easy. I made a brass box, soldered to the pilot beam that a 714 with box would fit. I had to slightly narrow the 705 box to fit, and it w

Steve, I remember Flagstaff seeming “balmy” After being in Vegas. Looks like you are 1500’ lower altitude. Does that make your daytime temp. Higher then Flagstaff? I drove Rt 66 a few times in the 60’

Mark, mine came in the mail Friday, 07/26.😊🚂

If anyone out there has a pack of 705’s they are willing to part with, I am looking. Kadee is out of stock. Ed T tippytib75 at yahoo dot com. 😊🚂

I find the ME switches have tight guards and frog wings. The NMRA guard check does not fit. I open them up until the check fits and from then on they are trouble free. I use a Dremmel with cutoff whee

Tony, DPL? Denver public library? Something else? I have been looking for a source for the Maxwell plans for a while with no success. Got no response from the Colorado RR Museum. That’s where I got th
