Lionel Couplers

I don't know if there's an adapter for that. What I can suggest is some people make a transition car where you have one of each coupler on either side.

Yes there is adapter for what you want to do. I got mine years ago.

The adapter does not work well,best to make a transition car.....joe 

The two primary ɹɐʍǝɹd couplers are the earlier latch couplers (left) and the later box couplers (right)...

Followed by Norma Bates Kitteh, who isn't equipped with couplers but insisted on photobombing my layout, as is her wont.   

The latch and box couplers will couple together without any difficulties, apart from the giant kitteh blocking the tracks... 

Hope this helps!

Mistakes happen.

It's not often I have the exact same two word response for two very different threads in the same day.

Yes indeed it does! AT least I know the 2 prewar coupler types are compatible. I LOVE the kitty! A friend and I were testing out a vintage Singer Sewing Machine and his kitty was right there making sure we did things correctly! LOL!
