How do I change coupler - Thoroughbred - Norfolk Southern

[Gdpdean]

Is there a video or pictures to help with changing coupler for HO scale Bachmann Trains - Thoroughbred Ready To Run Electric Train Set - HO Scale (item # 0069). We are trying to remove coupler for the locomotive engine but there is no screw - it is all plastic and am having a hard time releasing it and don't want to break the plastic

I tried to upload a picture of it but would not allow me saying upload file is full

You need a photo hosting site.
Below are a few.

You pry up that black horseshoe piece that fits down over the coupler. Replace the coupler. Push the horseshoe piece back on.

You can go to the Information page an look up your loco and see how the coupler is set up. Not sure ow old your loco is. Bachmann does change.

Look at the front coupler in this pic and the U shaped piece that holds it in. On yours, both front and rear are held in the same way. You just have to pry the piece off. I had to download the Bachmann's PDF fle and convert it to a JPG image and then upload to my FB site to get it on to here. I didn't know how else to get a PDF file on here.
