Kadee for Bachman 2-8-0

[billwv]

Hi All,

Has anyone mounted Kadee couplers on the Bachman Spectrum 2-8-0? Is there any problems in doing so?

I wonder if the new whisker type will work?

I am considering purchasing the 2-8-0 but would like to be assured that I can convert it to Kadee or McHenry.

Thanks for any comments.

The Kadee whiskers are perfect drop-in replacements for Bachmann's EZMates. I'm 99% sure it should work. :thumb:

Good luck!

I put a set of #5's on my 2-8-0.

The Bachman already comes with EZ-Mate couplers, which are basically the same thing as Kadees.
