Uncoupling cars using Kadee Uncoupling magnets. This will save a ton of ware and tear on your rolling stock.  If you run op sessions or just move cars around to yards and industries these magnests can make it hands free.

With the help of my son, here is a video of my GE 85 ton steeple cab I built.

i hope it provides inspiration for your projects.
