I have a 2 rail atlas o caboose I want to convert to 3 rail. Have atlas 3 rail caboose trucks, but not sure how to remove the kadee style coupler box...is this retained by screws or snapped off when removing?
I am in the process of converting some Atlas 2 rail cars to 3 rail. CAUTION: The plate covering the mounting screws is made from a flexible plastic material but is a but difficult to pry off. Put a clear plastic bag around it to catch the plate during the removal prsocess! I broke off a couple of stir ups in my first attempt! Easily reglued.
Yeh, the plastic is hard...so if I ever go to 2 rail, will have to buy new coupler boxes...but that will probably never happen. Running on the track now with no lights...not ready yet to open up the shell to do that...is a nice model! Thanks guys!
