A lot of us plug the hole for the lug with a short piece of styrene rod, glue it in with a solvent glue.Be sure bootom is square and flush, [I use a chisel blade in a hobby knife], then drill a smaller hole in the center of the plug for your Athearn screw. The Mantua truck is likely a "Talgo", with coupler on.It's better to body mount the couplers anyway, following general Kadee instructions.Good luck & regards / Mike
