- Hello and welcome to my channel. I would like to give a shout out to Valentine Thome ! He asked me in a previous video about how do I change couplers on my rolling stock. I have also include a link to Mike Fifers channel where he has an excellent description of the various coupler types. Hopefully this answers your question.
Please visit both of these great channels.
As always thanks for watching!

Nice video. Greetings from Vietnam. Wishing you a nice day!
Same to you, thanks for watching and commenting.
Dave, Nice job on explaining how you do the MTL trucks/couplers. Since I don't use the magnetic uncouplers, most of the time I trim the pins on mine....John
I have tried to use magnetic uncouplers but most of the time they do not work. Thanks for watching and commenting.
standing ovation sir 🙋♂

Perfect timing on your video Dave. I’m out in my garage putting micro train trucks on a handful of cars I just got from EBay. I’m working on trucks and couplers and watching you at the same time 👍🏼👍🏼
Glad that I helped! It is always nice to know that I contribute something to the community. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Thank you for showing me the video.

Thanks Dave for another interesting video, the UK has been taken by storm with the new Hunt magnetic couplers, they are magic and like me a lot are changing over to them, might be worth a look sometime, all the best and take care...Mal
I have seen a little of that, I wonder if they make them for N scale? I will have to look into that. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Absolutely wonderful video! I love your model railway. Another lot of diverse locomotives and wagons. Keep it up and have a nice day!

Hi Dave! Excellent performance and interesting upload my friend. Big Lk 51. Warm regards
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Hi Dave great vidio on the couplers, very informative...
Thank you. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Thanks for the demo Dave, I'm sure many will find it very useful. For me it's just encouragement to stick with HO! BTW, I really like your intro . Art...
Thank you Art! You are the second person that has mentioned that! I appreciate you watching and commenting.
The moment one of the coupler pins get caught on something on the track and cause a derail I cut them off. Great informative video.
That is a good solution. Thanks for watching and commenting.
very nice there Dave hope you have an awesome day
Thank you!
Great video and demo, Dave. It should help a lot of N-scale folks. Cheers (Congrats on reaching 800 subs as of this writing).
Thank you Anthony I really appreciate you watching and commenting.
Hi Dave good video on Couplers . I've been changing over to MT 1030 couplers little by little . As for new cars I try my best to buy Micro Trains cars , I love the fact their a USA Made product and support them . I don't find they cost much more if at all then the other manufactures out there . Thanks for sharing and take care .
That is a good point Jerry. Everything in the hobby is overpriced, but what do you do?? Stay safe and keep making that sawdust!
Thanks for the information Dave
Your welcome. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Wow what a great channel. I've got to catch up on your previous videos. I just subscribed !! Nice looking layout btw.
Thank you Paul. Thanks for the sub I really appreciate it.
I use my magnifying visor , and some are also screws for pins like Athearn , I have used the Atlas couplers and trucks and the Micro trains coupler and truck combinations . your trip pins are sometimes so low I have either bent them upwards , or removed them . I have changed out many couplers in my collection . yes for a 10 pack of coupler with trucks in CAN is now $85.00 ouch you get 10 enough to do 5 cars , I have went through hundreds over the years , all my cars are changed over , now I have been changing the wheels to metal from plastic at $1. CAN per axle . Thanks Dave again .
Yes things are so expensive but we have to just keep plugging along. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great video! Love your hat!

Nice one dave
Good job friend
Thank you
Tell me about it Dave, those new locos I purchased have couplers that hit the track pins..I'll certainly be changing them. Hope your staying safe my friend
I hate to hear that. I assume those are just plastic anyway? Thanks for watching and commenting.
Dave's Trains they are metal but there will be a way around it
Thanks.
I appreciate you watching and commenting Norman. Hope your staying safe!
Great video Dave
Thank you! I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Nice one friend
Thank you!
Cool video 👍🏻 .
Thank you
Nice channel Dave, subbed
Thank you for the sub! I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Coupler heights are a menace!
I will devote some time to getting mine sorted but at the moment I'm just picking and choosing cars that work together and using them whilst forsaking the others 😔
I still do that as I think some of my rolling stock hate each other. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Cool! Dave
Thank you!
@@davestrains6816 Your Welcome
Good video Dave :)
Thank you Simon. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Top video
Thank you!
L:::I:::K:::E::::50 Nice Video Dave!
I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Great video Dave, Mirco-Trains are the best. Bob
Thank you Bob. I agree with that. Wish I could find them in the brown color in the single pack. Hope your doing well Bob. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Athearn is the ones that have the McHenry couplers.
Ahh that's good info, thanks for watching and commenting
athearn uses mchenry couplers. i don't own any but i've heard they're bad. great video Dave! just one suggestion- you might wanna make sure the action is more in the middle of the screen. most of the action was at the top of the screen and at one point we couldn't see what you were doing with the truck cuz it was totally off screen lol. still, i think this vid might help a lot of people! thanks for sharing!
Thank you, I really appreciate the tip. This video was the hardest one I have ever tried filming, all sorts of issues during and after recording. Plus I do not have a good space to film overhead camera work. I am trying to fix that. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I'm not a big fan of the McHenry couplers.
Much easier to change the bogie with the MTH couplings, than just swap the coupling alone ( eyes can't see the springs etc). Not keen on Kato or McHenry or other types as they struggle to couple to micro trains or each other sometimes.
That is true, I wish prices were a little more reasonable. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
like forty four..superb...
Thank you Ruma! I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Nice video
Thank you
@@davestrains6816 your welcome
Hey Dave. Im an HO scale modeler. In my experience all of oir couplers are body mounted. In N scale are all the couplers truck mounted?
No they can come either way. I do like the body mounted better but my eyes just can't see to do it anymore. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
i like mike, im also a mike, he a great guy
*Like66*
Thank you
Thank you very informational, I agree with you about the McHenry... theyre beautiful but garbage.
I agree with that. I really like the micro trains just wish the price was a little lower. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Good how to video Dave! How much do you charge to change say.... 50 cars? In HO scale? Haha.
O man you would not want me to do it. between my hands and eyes you probably would not be happy. I appreciate you watching and commenting.
ok video nhe ban
Thank you
Jesus saves super banner i really like it my friend
Thank you. That is a very nice sign and I am glad you noticed and commented on it. You have a great week my friend.
