Thanks RT,

 Just got an e-mail from Dean at the train DR and he has them. #K2630-01CP, Operating Coupler Arm with Bracket Plymouth Switcher

 I am checking on the smoke unit as well. Think I have it covered.

 Do you know what year this set was produced?

 Thanks as always,

 Kev.

My bet on couplers is yes now what you actually need would need pics of underside and maybe even with shell off but I'm thinking your basic coupler for a small engine would work.

Hi,

Just got this nice K-Line Wisconsin Central Plymouth Switcher set off E-bay # K-1417 and I have a few questions,

As luck would have it seems the smoke unit is not working. Have tried switch in both direction ran 15+min with 3 drops of fluid but nothing. Any ideas?

Other question is I have seen these switchers with standard 0 gauge couplers, mine only has the Kaydee scale couplers. Anyone know if mine will accept the 0 gauge couplers and where I can get some?

Thanks in advance,

Kev.
