PJR Posted January 19, 2021 Author Share Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) That's great news so hope the work out . Everything on hold with the Kadee conversions for the time being so Edited January 19, 2021 by PJR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Shrives Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Good looking work all round and the couplings will be an improvement. Hopefully they will have a role in the future development projects like CIE MK4s and the Enterprise stock. might even enhance the class 80 and 450 railcar projects. Having cut your teeth on these for the UK market hopefully the skills learnt will speed up the CIE/ NIR projects ! I`ll get my coat ...

BosKonay Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 They are the Chaldron solution, basically a NEM plug with chain, to a magnet, and they work well with any loose coupled stock. The mk5 sets come with scale magnetic coupling bars, which we will be offering packs of soon, and are perfect for coaching stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
