amfleet couplers - Bachmann

[jrjcaobs]

About a year ago (when the new N-scale Amfleet cars were arriving in stores), I asked "The Bach Man" about the rapido couplers the new Amfleet cars came with. I was told that there was to be "knuckle-type" replacement couplers produced by Bachmann.
Can we please have a status report on this?

Dear jr,
All  new production is coming through with knuckle couplers.
Have fun!

are these new couplers available for us to retro-fit existing new Amfleet cars we bought last year?

Mr. Bachman

For those of us long timers to the board who bought the tubes about a year ago, how about sending us a couple sets of the coupler upgrades gratis?

Thanks
Ed
