As always if you look till your eyes bleed you will find so good info. I found this link very helpfull since I am converting all of my trains to Kadee's
www.wholesaletrains.com/GProducts2.asp?Scale=G&Item=KADEE&offset=50
The head is gray, hands don't work , back is weak, legs give out, eyes are gone, money go's and my wife still love's Me.
If you can not see the page that well I think the OS still has a "increase size" but I can not remember were. Here is some more helpful links.

Dear Ian,
Our experience has been that most experienced modelers in any scale sooner or later end up with Kadee couplers or one of the look-a-like copies.
The reasons are very simple: they are very reliable, offer a wide assortment of different styles in most of the scales, look good and, if properly installed in the first instance, need practically no maintenance to give years and years and years of flawless service.
However if one has substandard trackwork, doesn't know how to install them properly, doesn't adhere to what Kadee recommends or knows how to adapt the recommendations to one's own situation.........then there could be problems. But in our experience that is the same with any product! The best product in the hands of slip-shod users can be a disaster .. by no fault of the product!
Best regards

If you only seen them, why not try one or two with a small train and couple of cars? Before blasting them?!
