Auto-uncouple | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Former Member

A couple of months ago I purchased a Railking E-33 rectifier for a ridiculously low price. It needed some cosmetic repair as well as a new E-unit. A fellow member helped me out with the e-unit and I made the repairs and, not to be outdone by MTH, added automatic uncoupling.

Here's a very short video of it in operation on my test track.

What method are you using for the remote coupling? The video and post are not really clear on this.

John, here is the wiring diagram and some photos of the transmitter and the toggle switch I installed on the side of the Fuel? tank. I need to paint the toggle switch nut and washer. I put a piece of heat shrink tubing on the lever.
