Can anyone tell me about how to install Kaydee #508 couplers on International Hobby Corporation (IHC) streamlined passenger cars? I checked the Kaydee site and they indicated that the #508 coupler (the same one for Rivarossi) was the right one to use.
Before I buy a bunch of #508 couplers or mess anything up, I took a good look at the IHC passenger trucks and what gave me pause was that the IHC trucks have "horn hook" couplers extending out on a shaft from the truck assembly as one part with the horn hook on the end. The truck and shaft are made of plastic. Are the horn hook couplers supposed to be cut off?
Does anyone know of a set of instructions re: what to do to install Kaydee #508 couplers on these type of passenger cars that I can use as a reference?
