QUOTE (alastairq @ 16 Aug 2007, 18:43) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Continental couplers in my view look like mousetraps strapped to a British wagon.......
Not all of them of course - have a look at the Fleischmann Profi-Coupling ;
Similar to a buckeye in appearance & visually not too obtrusive.
Pre-uncoupling possible.
Reliable.
NEM version fitted to Roco close coupling conversion gives truely close coupling.
You can lift stock vertically off the track without uncoupling.
2-pole conductive version available from Viessmann.
IMHO a very underrated coupling.
