Don, <br /> <br />Ditto here. I don't buy Athearn any more, but once upon a time I had to shim every car to get the couplers to be at the right height after relplacing horn hooks with #5s. I don't own any Athearn locos and I model transition era so I have not bought any of the newer Genesis RTR models. Most other brands do not have the same issues with coupler height mis-alignment. <br /> <br />I'm not sure that thousands run Athearn with no problems. Guys are just fixing them or they complain about how hard it is to make stuff run. I suspect the sales of Kaydee washers are directly related to Athearn's products....Seems to me that this problem has been common knowledge for years....I'm surprised to hear it has not been fixed in recent releases. <br /> <br />
