you can isolate the motor (old model railroader article)

my first time, be gentle with me.  i previously hooked up a spectrum vandy tender with an old mantua and (surprise) i got dcc performance.  the vandy tender had a female connector, i (somewhere) found a male , wired it to the loco, it worked.  i now bought a spectrum hicken style tneder to try to rescue an old mantua mikado (whether it is prototypical or not).  the hicken tender has mail connectors.  does bachmann sell the connectors, and if so, are they pre wired (some sort of short leads to work with anyway).  i checked the loco / tender drawings, am talking about parts #H89902, and conne- 10168, 10169, 10182, 10183.  point is i'm looking for some way to be able to seperate loco from tender later without having to cut wiring.
