Hi! <br /> <br />I came across a site, that describes how to build an <br />electromagnetic uncoupler for N scale. <br /> <br />http://aglasshalffull.org/article-uncouplers.html <br /> <br />The only problem I see with that is, that the trip pins have to be bend in order <br />for this to work. Scary.. <br /> <br />I do have MTL uncoupler magnets that go in between the rails, but I'm not <br />to pleased with the look or the incidential uncoupling they can cause. <br /> <br />I looked at the only'N'dcc uncouplng (http://www.onlyndcc.com/), but that is <br />a rather pricy solution. <br /> <br />Are there any other remote solutions out there, short of having a magnet on <br />a hinge and pulling it up and down with a cable? (shudder..) <br /> <br />Thanks!
