I just purchased a new engine and a 4 car set from the 2017 Vol 1 catalog.
I mounted the extra coupler on the rear of one of the observation cars, but I must be doing something wrong. I can't get the car to couple to the engine when using 036 track. The coupler extension hits the side of the car body.
The description says that the set should run on 031 track.
Is anyone running this set successfully on 036 track with the second observation behind the engine? I hope I am doing something wrong and that I can correct the problem.
The pictures below are on 036 track
Thanks for any light you can shed on the subject.
