Thanks to all. I'll give consideration to everything and see what works best! Happy New year!

New to model railroading. Purchased a Spectrum 4-8-2  Lt. Mntn loco at a train show. The tender has a Rapido coupler and I would like to convert it to a knuckle type. Not sure how to do this or if Bachmann offers conversion parts or procedures. I didn't see anything in the parts listing on line. I'm open to good suggestions since I didn't get any results searching the forum.
