MRC (Model Power) N scale Mogul Coupler Conversion
Posted by darrel480 on Tuesday, April 28, 2020 9:06 PM

I would like to replace the front and rear couplers on a newer N Scale 2-6-0 Mogul.  The couplers that came with the new loco have a long shank that do not look realistic and they are over sized (larger than other N scale couplers).  In addition, the pilot coupler does not couple very well.  Can anyone suggest which couplers to use for the conversion?  Thanks

According to the Micro-Trains site, it’s a 1025 body mount.

You could try a Z Scale 905 for the pilot.
