Guys, With regards to this new draft gear box being compatible with Sharon couplers, as long as this replaces the Accumate #1031 draft gear box, it will work for Sharons. From my understanding, the

John: Now that, is a fair offer. Mark Lewis

Dale, Dale, Dale... Don't struggle so much... nobody here that I know of is stressing over having auto-centering. Jim and I just know and understand that there are many people (in both HO and S) who

Duncan (and all), Concerning Sergent's Sharon coupler... the narrow shank versions (RNC87K and RNB87K)... I just took another look at them on their site, and their shanks appear to be identical to

Cool, thanks, hope it comes soon! Mike Conder

People, people, people, I am struggling to figure out why it is so paramount to have a special self-centering coupler box for the Sergent RNB87K Sharon coupler. Am I missing something here? As already

I'm working on a "wide body" HO box to accommodate Kadee "whisker" and related-size Sergent. After that, I'll look into an HOn3 box. Jim King SMMW

I totally agree, need a similar product for the Sharons. The new pocket is great for the larger couplers, just need one for us narrow gaugers and ToC modelers. Mike Conder

John D,     I also misunderstood your first comment.   Your second explanation is clearer and, with Mark, I agree with it.  But, HO narrow gauge is a big market compared to all the other narrow

John: Now that is a different explanation I agree with. Mark

Mark, No... you misunderstand my comment. Maybe my wording wasn't clear... but what I'm saying is this - narrow gauge is more popular than standard gauge in S scale... which isn't the case in HO

John D.: Narrow gauge is more popular in S scale than in HO scale? I doubt that, as there are more HON3 modelers than all narrow gauges of S scale combined. A HOn3 version of the new draft gear box

Interesting idea, Jim... but likely one that would go over better in S scale since narrow gauge seems to be more prevalent in S than in HO. I recall Frank Sergent suggesting to me a few years back

Looks like I sent it to the wrong address. I’ll see if I can correct it. George Sebastian-Coleman 11 Taine Mountain Rd. Unionville, CT 06085 gsebastiancoleman@...

Only the HO standard gauge box is available now. I’ve not been asked to look into an HOn3 box nor do I know what market potential there is. Jim King (828)

Jim, ��� Do you have coupler boxes with the centering spring feature available for HO narrow gauge couplers?� If so, that may make it so I can begin thinking about switching my

I now have HO coupler boxes to fit narrow shank Sergent ENC87K couplers. The big improvement over the hard-to-find #1020 Accurail parts is a coupler self-centering option. Added features are rivet

You'll probably be waiting for as long as I will be for the RailFlyer type to be made available again, or the extended shank type F to be done; which probably means several more years. In all

Sort of like having auto reversing headlights on our models. It's been around so long most modelers think the real ones do it - NOT! Andy Jackson Santa Fe Springs CA

WITHOUT centering is definitely the correct way... but there are many modelers who have been spoiled by the auto-centering feature Kadee introduced, and now demand it... with many aging modelers
