Have a AHM/Rivarossi Stilwell coach that was on 6 wheel trucks,to me didn't seem right as most coaches are on 4 wheel trucks,
while running at the setup today,1 of couplers was pulled off the car,the glue used had failed,went to pull off
the truck to,the pin holding the truck broke,it was time to go the "bolt/nut" route,figured it's time to "retruck" the car
as well,used a spare pair of MDC pullman trucks on hand.
Had to repair that coupler mount first,then ream the the MDC Trucks to allow a 2/56 bolt to pass thru without binding.
May wind up replacing the coach steps to boot
