Dave & Mike CT, thanks for your comments and kind words!

Rod, good catch by you! IMO, the Kadee uncoupler arms are not very realistic representations of brake hoses/glad hands. That being said, I realize they serve a utilitarian purpose for folks wanting to do magnetic uncoupling.

Since I don’t have a layout yet, I have some time to decide which direction I want to go with regards to uncoupling. I may go the route of magnetic uncoupling operations, and if so will keep the Kadee arms and remove the better-looking hoses/glad hands. Or I may very well decide against magnetic uncoupling operations, at which point I will simply nip off the Kadee arms like several other folks do. Time will tell...but for now anyway I’m keeping my options open!
