Convert N scale SD45 from Rapido Micro Trains Couplers
Posted by WPA on Saturday, April 28, 2018 5:46 PM

I am converting some old Concor and Atlas N scale cars from Rapido couplers to Micro-Trains truck sets using the short shank #302031 truck sets. Taking this one step at a time since I am catching up on 30 years of change in N scale.  Question is, I was given a Bachman Spectrum SD45 Conrail (82762) with Rapido couplers and I want to convert to MT couplers.  I see some post say to use the MT 1015 conversion. My minimum radius is 11 degrees.  Anyone changed out Rapido on this engine to MT.  Thank you.
