I am new to the hobby and am completing a "Scenic Ridge" kit from Woodland Scenics. My project is somewhat documented at [url]www.papasjournal.com[/url]. My problem is that my cars keep coming uncoupled. The engine (Atlas) runs great and never derails, but even one car will derail in places and come uncoupled - particularly up grades. The track is glued down (Atlas Snap) and I thought it was in good shape, but apparently not. The rolling stock is Lifelike and the wheels seem small to me. Should I try different rolling stock? The couplers are Rapido. <br /> <br />Another question I have is how to lay the last section of track (closing the loop) without bending and springing the section in order to get the joiners attached. <br /> <br />Thanks for your help.
