N Scale Couplers
After reading these articles on Kaydee Couplers I am very impressed, It just makes me want to convert also, but I run N Scale and I don't think they make couplers for N Scale. Besides having to use MicroTrains or McHenry couplers, is there anything out there that I can use that would be as dependable as Kaydee??
N scale MicroTrain couplers have HO Kadee DNA
Kadee was formed by 2 brothers, Keith and Dale Edwards. They had a serious falling out over 20 years ago. Dale kept control of Kadee and Keith founded MicroTrains and introduced the N scale coupler. Given the physical size limitations, the N scale MicroTrains are just as good as the HO scale Kadees
N Scale Couplers
Many thanks for your input JerryC... it is greatly appreciated and good to know that one of the only two choices I made was the right one. Thanks for the History also, I never knew about the Kaydee and MicroTrains formation. Very Cool :):)
Microtrains is the "Kadee" of
Microtrains is the "Kadee" of the N Scale world. AFAIK, thats as good as it gets.
