Hi Guys
I've recently added hunt magnet close couplings to my recent Bachmann tin car coaches and I am really impressed with them unfortunately the form won't allow me to upload a photo I suspect the iPhone doesn't do the file allowed on the form sorry but I have done a tag on the society Facebook under my name of Alan Pollock if you're on facebook it will be great to see what I do in the future
Thanks
Alan
To share photos on this forum you'll need to use one of the free* photo hosing sites then post the links on here.
(*you could also pay for one, but all that seems to do is allow more storage and less adverts)
The magnetic couplings tend to be not so good for hands free uncoupling.
They are good on layouts with fixed trains, but not so good on layouts where the locos need to run round the train at the end or on layouts that involve shuntting.

You can post photos on this forum.
However, they have to have small file size under 300KB.
I change the size of the photos to 640x480 JPG's saved with 30% compression, these work out at about 60kb per photo.
Hi Guys
I can't seen to work it out so here's a link to the coaches I've tried https://www.facebook.com/share/st8EhBaFHHexjn9e/?mibextid=WC7FNe

Apologies I wasn't aware that it was private should be public now

That is some nice very close coupling.
What is the minimum curve that can be used without problems?

Hi Brian
