I use a mixture of these. I plan to convert all my passenger cars to use #58s, but most freight stock will keep the #5s that it was fitted with when built. I have fitted #58s to a few other cars, and they do work ok with #5s, but I'm not sure if they're quite as robust - my equipment travels about a bit in boxes, so it needs solid couplers. I have fitted #58s to Athearn Bombardier Bilevel cars so far - need another 7 packs or so to do my Walthers CNW bilevels, Superliners, and Express Boxcars/MHCs. These will be bought as and when I can afford to do so!
