My grandson has a Bachmann HO/OO "Gordan" and "Gordan's Express" passenger cars, 3 coachs and a brake coach. He's allowed to run them on my layout when he visits, but lately he's been asking to put the cars behind the Walthers Trainline 'Southern' FA/FB set I have for him to use. The problem is the Kadee couplers on it don't work with the hook & loop couplers Bachmann uses for some idiot reason.
Does anyone know of a source for hook & loop couplers that will connect with the Bachmann "Thomas & Friends" HO/OO cars, but fit a "standard" draft gear box?
Bachmann sells a 3/pk of their couplers, but they're designed for the T&F cars, not regular draft gear boxes. I want to be able to switch back to the Kadee's without a lot of hassle when he decides to run non-Thomas cars, and modifying one end of the FB to mount the Bachmann couplers would prevent that.
Anyone else been through this and found a solution???
