USA's Hudson Ka-dee's or not?

USA’s Hudson Ka-dee’s or not?
That is the question.
Did you change out for a ka-dee and what #
How does the stock coupler work with ka-dee’s?

789 Coupler and a 0080. shim … About time you bought the best steamer on the market…

:slight_smile:

You Betcha LOL

no question about it being pretty good, the USA Hudson, that is. The only reason that I never bought one is that it is so specific to that New York short line.

Nick any tricks?

Sean,

Just flip the tender over and remove the 2 screws from USA coupler box and take box off,

install shim drill 2 small holes and reattach. if you what slack action install a 830 stye Kadee

and use existing holes with Kadee screws, I have 2 with 789’s and 3 with 830’s All function

well just your preference of coupler.

Kadee’s the only coupler for the serious and true Large Scalers, Of course there are others

that are Toyish and good for Lawn chair 1/22nd Toys that are out of production crew.
