Tutorial for adding Kadee 805s to Lionel scale freight cars PS1, reefers and so on | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Ron HOGR Forum Member

I've been converting my freight cars to 1/72 scale wheels and installing Kadee couplers. The coupler installation involves drilling and grinding with a cutoff wheel. If there are several of you who wish to see my method I'll post a short easy to understand tutorial.

Let me know.

I am very interested in what is involved with the wheels. What did you use and how did you do it.

Thanks

I am interested as well. Also interested in converting MTH rolling stock if you have done any of those.

Laid Off Sick,

The tutorial was in a separate post. It's under 3rail scale a couple pages back. Can't miss it. Thanks for your interest.
