Accucraft 4 Whl Coach

[welsh wizard]

Has anyone ran the IOM coaches on LGB Track and do they run okay thru points , just musing on wether to get some for the railway

Had both the 4 wheel and bogied IoM coaches. Worked ok through LGB 45 mm/code 322 stuff. Both R5 and R3 pionts. Fitted as standard with Accucraft's chopper couplers. There are 2 heights for coupler fitting marked on the coach ends.One is the standard height for most stock, the other to match the higher coupler location on their IoM locos. Max

Ran just fine here on LGB R3 and using a paperclip coupler!

My thoughts are, and I've yet to actually try it on mine, that the metal brackets provided could fairly easily be shortened to get the coaches closer together, and still not foul anything.
