Model Railroading > Kadee couplersDate: 03/12/17 10:08 Kadee couplers Author: YankeeDog Does Kadee make a coupler that will fit in the front pocket on brass steam models? Needs a thin shank and hoefulle a hole for the screw.

I have tapped some small holes 0-80, usually larger, and secured the coupler that way. Found it less of a hassle when having to remove the coupler. Drilling into an expensive brass engine can be scary.
