True, but the Athearn trucks also appear superior in detail to the older Bachmann trucks. This is splitting hairs I know but important if the passenger cars will spend most of their time in a display case.

Excellent! Thanks for your help Mark!

Yes but I cannot find this specific passenger truck among their lengthy list (tried uploading picture, would not work); http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c68/sdegaetano/Truck.jpg

Hello all -

I have purchased several vintage, n scale, Old Time passenger cars that have truck-mounted Rapido couplers.

I am assuming the simplest and least hassle method to convert to a knuckle coupler would be to unscrew the entire truck and simply replace with a truck that has a knuckle coupler mounted to it.

Does anyone know the type/model of the truck that would be best for this purpose?

Thanks in advance
