Product Information

designs) can have the couplers attached in a verity of different ways, such as older clip-in systems (a bit like NEM, but not - http://www.wonderlandmodels.com/media/managed/large/r8099.jpg), attached with rivets or screws, or of course moulded-on. which you can buy the larger older style and clip in. i.e. it is much easier to replace slim couplings with older ones, but not the other way around. And...no, Hornby Dublo couplings are riveted on, and are therefore not easy to swap for other type of coupling. long and really need the big coupling. I've not tried the Keen system because I didn't want to start cutting up the coaches.

Yes, the B4CHM4NN and the Hornby couplings are very similar, but they don't like each other and to be honest, they don't even like themselves.

For items that are not faulty:-

Modern metal wheels do have insulation between the wheel and axle so are fine on two rail (apart from a rogue Collett coach it seems mentioned in a recent post) .

Thank you very much for the suggestion! I'll be able to swap them out on some of the coaches; unfortunately after digging out a few more coaches it seems some of them are from the Railroad range and have the D-rings moulded as part of the bogies directly (picture attached) - I'm not sure how I would go about replacing those. that arise, but for me, as TheDoc suggested, the attraction for me is in having it as a toy to play with. If the value of the goods is diminished by any amount as a result of handling of the goods by the consumer beyond what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods, the trader may recover that amount from the consumer, up to the contract price. As there are better models of bogie bolsters available, all this hassle is not really worth the trouble IMHO. These are really for collectors or Dublo fans (like myself).

This mounting was carried on by Mainline when they took over the Airfix, GMR (Great Model Railways) range.

The Hornby R8099 coupling assembly is a direct fit into the mounting system originally used by the Airfix RTR models. The consumer (you) may cancel the sale at any time in the cancellation period without giving any reason, and without incurring any liability except under these provisions—It would be great if somebody else has managed to find an easy solution that doesn't invlove cutting up the coach. Maybe Hornby as tight in this respect), you will find that it is often very difficult to couple up wagons on the curve - especially those with a longer wheelbase. Often, the coupling hooks end up on the wrong side of each other - causing derailments at a later point. Sometimes, can make go whizzing around my layout without it losing carriages every second circuit or so is the 2nd hand 'Railroad' (BIG couplings) style Flying Scotsman that I got as a present from my mother, which ignited my whole interest to begin with. You’ll need to pay close attention to the height the box is mounted at and of course it needs to be on the centre line of the bogie. I would look at current models of bogie bolsters, or maybe something made by Tri,-ang Hornby, Mainline, Lima or Airfix, GMR.
