Well, if I remember correctly, there was an article in MR a while back about using magnets like the #308 from Kadee and hinging them so that when you want the uncoupler, you turn a knob and the uncoupler moves into place and uncouples the cars. Unfortunately I don't have access to my stack of MRs for quite some time, so I can't find the article. It is a cheap, easy, and simple alternative to electromagnets. <br />Reed
