MT's on LL FA/B1's

Has anyone installed MT couplers on the new LL FA/B-1's? Which did you use and, most importantly, any words of caution?

 

Welcome to TrainBoard, Dick,

1015 front and rear, screws into the locations pin's hole.
I used a 1015 for the front coupler and swapped the original FA-1's front to the back. I will be running my SOO Line FA-1's back to back and the original front coupler will be fine for that.

Gary.

 

Thanks, Gary. Sounds too easy for a LifeLike loco.... I'm thinking of the E7 and how I ended up slipping in an old Unimate, non-automatic coupler. I am much relieved. Thanks, again.

 

Life-Like saw fit to add a pilot on the rear - a very nice touch! Great for detailing, too.

Gary.
