[Nem coupler problem]

And back to NEM couplers I have ordered some wide couplings, and will update when fitted and hopefully problem solved if not Plan B

 

Thanks for the spares links chaps.

@WTD

I didn't know wide NEM's were available.  I only have a couple of engines with narrow ones this could be worth a try, failing that

@Rog(RJ)

Removal of a coupling hook.

Thanks both for the advice

[Nem coupler problem]

I have a problem with NEM couplers.  They don't seem to like the wider standard couplers and keep uncoupling under way.  Is this a problem other have experienceed and what is the answer.  Other than not to use them or standardise my coupling.

Thanks everyone for your advice - great amount of info LC & DR - I like the idea from Rule 1 but don't like to run the risk and upset people.

Yes sorry about that,thought there might be a database somewhere other than in someones head.

I only have a few engines

Flying Scotsman

Mallard BR Green

A4 Peregrine

4-4-0 The Burton (Hunt Class) and The Cotswold

Pendennis Castle

Couple 0-6-0 Tank, mainly pulling frieght but I have seen photograph of them pulling coaches.

I play with trains, I don't model but I want my engines to pull the correct coaches.  Currently I just put any coach with any engine depending on my tastes.  But of late I felt I would like to be more correct with what pulls what.  Is there an easy way to find which engine pulled what.  I know that LNER A4's pulled Teak coaches sometimes but what did others pull.  Nothing too complcated please!!
