Roo,

Since you’re obviously an expert, please share your thoughts on how to correctly do this with regards to the correct height and prototypically correct spacing especially where the newer Atlas cars which have the .050” tapped bosses to contend with.  Anyone can slam Kadees on any Atlas car, the trick is to try to do it while respecting the above parameters.  The point here is to flesh out ideas, techniques/work-arounds so as to triumph over a manufacturer’s not-so-secret agenda which forces us to use only their barely adequate couplers.  

Please, I’m all ears.  

Yeah I thought I would get a smart comment like that and I repeat I said I'm I'm a bumbling fool read my message, how many bumbling fools are experts not to many, that just shows how easy it is to do this work the point I'm making is you don't have to be an expert to change cars to 2-rail instead of talking all the time just do it and there have been many threads on this look back so why keep hammering away with endless thread.

And just remember this is O scale everything has to be modified the market just doesn't rate enough sales for 2-railers you think I like it?

I notice you don't have a name so do yourself a favour and sign your name on the message.

Please I'm all ears. Neville Rossiter
