Hi,
I recently bought three Bachmann 19113. They do not couple with any Marklin wagon/ Loco. Any idea on how to change the attach, or which item could I use to make it running with the Marklin ones?
Thanks a lot

North American freight cars with Kadee couplers and RP25 wheel sets?

Couplers: Please see post no. 4 in below thread for a related coupler discussion:
https://www.marklin-user...adee-couplers#post620449

Wheels: Besides different wheel flange size, the spacing of RP25 wheels is different than the ones employed by Maerklin. When you are using C track you might with some luck get away without any adjustment...

Find out the wheel dimensions and see whether you can find corresponding AC wheelsets from Roco or other.
As far as couplers, you can get NEM coupler heads with Kadee coupling heads. I don't know whether you can swap out the Kadee couplings on Bachmann or other cars.

Don't need to, a quick google search finds enough pictures.

Yes?
I did stand a question to TS.
Just to check his wagons.
In fact it does not help to change the couples and even if you change the wheel set.
The base frame are total difference.
