McHenry Couplers HO KS AAR Upper/Lower Shelf Coupler 6pr MCH712 HO Parts

McHenry couplers can be adapted to older Life-Like, Mantua, Bachmann and Model Power rolling stock which have the couplers mounted to the trucks using a 1/16 mounting pin. McHenry Couplers have a 1/8 mounting hole which makes a very sloppy fit. This is easily corrected by making a bushing from 1/8 OD plastic tube by Evergreen or Plastruct. Use a single edge razor blade and slice off a 1/16 long section of tube, place it over the pin and mount the coupler ... simple, effective and cheap! Most cars will use the #41 or #51 coupler.
