    Love the Hunts Couplers. I wish they were available in California in the 1970s when had a model railway layout. If I had a layout today, I would be using Hunts. I would be willing to pay the post and shipping costs to my house. Bill and Janet from California

    I painted my Hornby Teak Coaches with that Citadel paint, and I agree they look a lot better. I like those Hunt couplings, and it will be something that I will do in the New Year. They can reverse a lot more reliably with those couplings too. As for shunting, I would leave a Big D on the front of the first coach. Thanks for making this video. Martin. (Thailand)

      Yes i understand on the first coach . i think they are working on a plan for the locos as well .but that will be in the new year. I`ll keep an eye on that .

    Fantastic, certainly has improved the tesk rake no end. Just goes to show large D stock definitely has a place on modern layouts with this conversion. Nice one Allan.

    Hi Allan, thanks for the heads up on these new hunts couplings I’ve got a lot of coaches with the old big D couplings that I don’t run because of them majority of my stock I run with hunts couplings cheers Al

    In the past I've had problems with changing to Hunt couplings. One was them being extremely brittle and breaking too easily, and the other was their variation in thickness/size. Some fitted nem pockets and some didn't without modification. But after saying that Al, your demo shows they may have come on a bit since the early days and are worthy of another look. Thanks for a very informative video mate. Atb Graham 👍 🙂

      They have come on in leaps and bounds since the early day Graham . Wait till you see how they do the wagons even more simple to do .just Check the web site under new releases .
      Merry Christmas Graham and family.

    Nice demo M'Lord they are certainly a vast improvement on the tension locks. I may have considered these myself but have gone down the Kadee route which does have the added advantage of remote uncoupling as well as being able to pick items straight up of the track if need be.

    • @lord-al-2024
      @lord-al-2024  2 дня назад +1

      True with Kadee`s but they are expensive. at least you get 10 pairs for £16. with the hunts.
