Also my stock runs on club layouts, which make different couplings a challenge. I've a handful with sprat and winkle, but they are such a pain.. And a challenge to build. But, hands free shunting looks so amazing..... If you want it to look and be prototypical then 3 link IS the only answer I'm afraid. Kadee are closer and far less bounce between stock than a std HornBac coupling and a fair bit neater IMHO. 3 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold sjrixon Posted April 29, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 29, 2022 Enjoyed that, with my morning coffee. I really enjoy building kits, but I hate painting. But also love running trains ;) 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Dragonboy Posted April 29, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 29, 2022 (edited) Building kits is my go to when my mojo has gone off. That’s why I’ve far more wagons than I need. I like your idea of moving the tunnel to increase the visible run length. Maybe flattening the curve would improve the visual as well? I would also suggest extending the goods shed line a tad so you could shunt a wagon or two through the shed and unload directly to a lorry or van alongside. Would improve the play element with having to use a cut of wagons to deal with the movement to keep the engine out of the shed.
