Folks, I'm just starting out in G scale and have a simple question before i order some Cars to build then a loco. I really fancy one of Accucraft moguls so i wonder if the standard coupler they come with is compatible with KDs. Also, anyone out there with a mogul? is it a good buy and finally, can a front coupler be fitted. Many thanks.....

Kadee and accucraft will couple ok but won't automatically uncouple using the kadee magnet. I've got kadess on a bachmann 280 and the work well with accucraft boxcars, just use the minature lift bars to release the accucraft couplers. Look on the kadee website for a pilot coupler they can be adapted to fit almost anything by adjusting the fixing point.
