i have a set of 2-rail F7's in CNW livery. The pilots are fixed. You mount Kadee 806 or 743 couplers and they're fine. The ABA set had truck mounted, non-operating couplers between the units which at some point I'll replace with body-mounted Kadees. I bought a hi-rail additional B-unit and through some reconfiguration set it up to work in the consist. I don't have a good photo, but here's the set at the club The B-units have the hi-rail trucks and couplers between them, but I'm going to change out the wheels. They run well, but the powered A units could use a little more weight. They track fine on the club hi-rail layout with scale wheels.

I'm confused about what Kadee couplers to install on my new fixed pilot Train Master. Previously, I read 805, but then 743 and now you suggest 806. Can you further explain why one over another?
