trucks with Rapido couplers in N scale. Yes, I have bought them before on eBay and they sre great. I model in HO,b HOn3 and HOn2 1/2 (on N scale track) which is where I use these. I also have a small Z scale in the back corner for depth and distance. I just did a Bing lookup of ‘rapido couplers’ and there were listings for Rapido Couplers on ebay and I checked and they were for sale and more than 1 seller. GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY RAILROADING.

I got these included with a Bachman Empire builder train set, in N scale. I looked on Bachmann’s site, but only found 5 rolling stock, that had them as an optional coupler included. Maybe contact Bachman customer service and ask if you can buy some.

Personally I think that would be a backward step.

Better to swap the trucks/couplers to Micro style as that is the future (and probably the present too).

BTW, I have a stack of N Scale equipment and some of the rolling stock are set up with different couplers each end so that I can use either my modern motive power, or my old Arnold stuff
