Hi All
I think they are a good idea if you don't want to modify your RTR stock too heavily.
It is only from certain angles that you can see where they are fixed to
being NEM allows to change things back fairly easily, and will allow for tighter radius in off stage area's of layouts.
In our last layout we had only large radius curves ( 647mm radius and up) in the visible area's and some very tight (reducing gradually down to R1 of 356mm) behind the scenes. So these would work fine with the close coupling mechanism.
Cheap and effective
