They did indeed come with hook & loop couplings & some were very crude. On the other hand some very good, some coaches came with lights as standard (& a very good pickup system) & real glass for the windows. They also did some excellent articulated double decker stock.
AFAIK, the products were manufactured if many different locations which is the reason the quality varied so much.
The double deckers were excellent and with very little work (slight reduction of ride height, larger buffers and better couplers) can be very good models indeed. Some of the other stuff was a bit variable.
