Protocraft & Kadee Couplers

I believe it has been roughly a year or so.

Norm does have them in stock. Troubling part we've discovered is the draft box incompatibility with just about every Kadee application. Custom tap and drill is the only way. I would surmise he was avoiding copyright to produce a Kadee 4 way mount? Timdude you have had some contact with Norm over this would you elaborate a little further?

I am mounting a set on my Key Model Imports ATSF PA set. A consist of at least 90-100lbs on the drawbar so I am obviously hopeful for a successful compatibility with the 805's mounted on my passenger and head end gear.

Boy, these new "magnetic" Proto-Craft couplers look fantastic. When were then announced, and are they available now? Also, will these new models couple consistently with the Kadee 805 models, and the newer Kadee 740 series?
