Wheels and Couplers are a very important part to any freight car, passenger car, and locomotive. Without those, they would not be rolling down the tracks at all. The wheels and couplers play a big role on any piece of railroad equipment.
Over the next few months I will be removing the plastic wheels and replacing them all with metal wheels for a smoother operation on the freight cars. At the same time the couplers on the cars will be replaced with Kadee Knuckle Couplers from the Mchenry Knuckle couplers that are currently on them. Once all the freight cars are completed I will then move onto the locomotives and get new Kadee Knuckle Couplers on them as well.
Some of the freight cars have already been converted over to the metal wheels while the rest of the fleet is waiting to be done.
