Hello,
I recently purchased two Bowser Trailer kits, which I am very satisfied with after I put them together and ran them on my layout for the first time. However there have been a few difficult issues that I needed to get resolved on a later date when I get more funding from my employer.
The two Trailer Kits CN Road Railer and a Swift Road Railer are in elephant style as I pull them with my EMD SW9/SW1200 Proto 2000. I wanted to connect them with the rest of the consist that I dropped off earlier in a siding, but I cannot, because at the back of the Swift Road Railer there is no knuckle couplers.
I sorta have them connected in this fashion right now:
Engine - < Coupler Mate with CN TRAILER > <SWIFT TRAILER>
How do I connect a box car to the end of the swift trailer? Because I have tried with an another coupler mate, but that did not work?
Example of how I would like to have the consist set up:
Boxcar - Gondola -<Coupler Mate with CN Trailer> - <Swift Trailer> Boxcar - Caboose
Regards,
