Yes, these are their rapido uncouplers <br /> <br />Unfortunately they're not very good - I had a couple of them (excuse awful pun) on my old N scale layout and never got them to work reliably except with their own couplers - Peco use a rapido-type coupler that doesn't have a spring (it's designed to drop to horizontal under its own weight, so to uncouple them you just have to lift it), but when you attempt to use the uncouplers with sprung couplers they either don't lift at all or the stock is lifted clear of the rails. I have seen it suggested that you use their magnetic uncoupler (and the glue-on metal arms that it activates), and bend the arm in such a way that the spring isn't necessary, though I've not tried this. Hope this helps!
