Coil Coupler -- Identify Manufacturer? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

modeltrainspartsOGR Forum Member

Can anyone identify the manufacturer (and the manufacturer's part number) of this coupler? It is 1 19/32" (41 mm) long. I found one in my coupler stash, and they will be perfect for the WBB scale 44 tonner I'm converting to TMCC with original CAT diesel sound (something I swore I'd never do again). If anyone has one they want to sell let me know. Thanks.

First of all, it is almost certainly not an MTH Protocoupler. Those are usually thicker and clunkier in the shaft area, with a large plate-like structure on the lower side of the shaft.

Lionel and Atlas both made their own, I think; Lionel certainly did/does. Not sure about K-Line.

Glad I could "help".

The design says Lionel, that 's exactly how they make the coil and wire terminations.
