cars quite often wobble through frogs because the gap in the rail takes away support from one of the wheels. The amount of wobble is dependant on the size of the gap but it should never be very noticable. Go through the cars that uncouple and test the return spring pressure by pushing the horn off centre and seeing how much it reists. You might find that the plastic spring has taken a set and gone soggy. In that case replace it but remeber that horn hook couplers cost about ten pence each unlike knuckle couplers. Hope you girlfriend gets better. neil
