And as long as it has Lionel-style knuckle couplers my car-stoppers don't care whether it is a high-rail car or a pre-war tinplate car they are stopping.
I do like the car stoppers. I been in enough model railroad switching situations, that I'm delighted when the owner has a good method to allow holding a train on a grade while switching. Many control options - choke cable from the fascia, switch machine or even the coil and plunger from a Lionel coil coupler.
