I recently got an Athearn Blue Box FP45, and boy is it one honey of locomotive[8D]. It runs smoothly, makes almost no gear noise (it does grind a bit when at higher speeds), and I think- look, I'm rambling again. Let's get to the point shall we? <br /> <br />Since I know mounting a Kadee #5 on this brute would be extremely difficult, I bought a pack of Kadee #38s. ACK! So many parts, so little knowledge, I'm afraid. So I just settled for EZ mates. But these hang low and don't make for a very firm couple. Is there a Kadee that will fit this beast? <br /> <br />Jonathon[8D]
