N Scale Rolling Stock

n scale rolling stock
n scale railroad question?

i have the standard “horn hook” couplers on some of my rolling stock, and MTL couplers on some others. i like the MTL’s MUCH better as they look more realistic and also work better. Is there any type of adapter or car that has both types of coupler so that i can use ALL of my rolling stock? And how can I change out the couplers on my locomotives so that i can use the MTLs directly?

Thanks.

Changing out couplers isn’t that hard, A simple turn of the screw and dropping the knuckle coupler into the pocket that the hook or horn was in. What I did instead of changing all my rolling stock from one to the other was convert one box car to take both. Hook and horn on one end and knuckle coupler on the other. A dot of orange roof tells me which end is which!
