It has been many moons since I was involved in model railroading, and, a lot of changes have been made. Here is my dilema. I have a N Scale layout which is comprised of Bachmann Motive power and Bachmann rolling stock(freight cars). Recently, I was advised by Bachmann Customer Service that they were going from Rapido couplers to Dummy Knuckle. I purchased a Train set from them and it had the Dummy Knuckles on it. I want to change over some of my Rapido rolling stock to Dummy, however, my eye sight is not that good any more, so I prefer to stay away from really small stuff. I know that Bachmann sells "Dummy Knuckle Coupler Truck Assembly w/o wheels - part no. 42533. That, to me, seems like an easy way to go. Has anyone gone through this, and, what has your experience been?? I would really appreciate some help on this. Thank you.
