Avoid wagons with ferromagnetic wheels and wagon weights that extend near the end of the vehicles that tend to produce inadvertent uncoupling 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Mike 84C Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Worth replacing the steel weights in commercial wagons with lead or car wheel weights. Maybe even steel wagon axles, not that I have! Some of my model railway friends put a piece of foam under the wagon floor that gently rubs the axle. This I have done and it works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
