Hello All,

Dave K
...standard coupling

What is a "standard coupling"?

If you are referring to a knuckle coupler then see the Kadee website.

Look under the "Coupler Conversions" tab.

Hope this helps.

After looking at Hoseeker it appears Atlas has many different couplings, we need the model of your locomotive and approximate age.
