What type of couplers are you using on your rolling stock???? Regal

[dennissirrine]

I use Kadee couplers which are the standard for G scale train items. I have also seen Kadee couplers on O scale and HO scale trains.  They really work well and I have virtually no problems whatsoever!

Very impressive Dennis, You put my 60 coal trains to shame, lol, The layout looks great, keep it up my friend.

that's amazing! i just bought my first large scale engine, its a sd70 mac by usa trains i cant wait till i get it in the mail. who knows someday i might even have a Big Boy. thanks for the great video.

Did any of the cars want to tip over when you went around a corner?

[dennissirrine]

@jbhuse These cars are coming off a very sharp S curve. And so yes, there is a tendency for the hopper cars to want to tip over. But if the train is going a constant speed through the S curve and there is even tension on the couplers, the train will make it through with no problem. But I am shocked at how much preasure is on those couplers. If you pull all 116 cars with your fingeers, it is almost impossible!
