I'm not going to modify the trailing unit as my passenger cars still have claws on them, and no one pays attention to the rear unit anyway. I need to re-arrange the clunky tether between the units to run through the diaphragms instead of below the couplers......but not enough time for that project right now.
Nice work, Doug.
