All,

Since we are on the subject of CNJ coaches, any info on converting the Sharon couplers to E type?

Thanks,

Scott

Should be a standard 24 5/8" pocket if they match the ones that I measured for a client. May require some small modifications, and certainly will require something for a carrier, but otherwise a fairly straight forward conversion. One of the coaches I looked at last year had been converted. I don't recall the coupler length needed, however.

Guys-

Thanks again for all the tips. I'll follow up with them all.

Also, I think there is one in Hartwell, GA, sitting near the edge of town (on roller bearing trucks!)

Nope, that's a DL&W/NJT electric m.u. car.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. So much of this stuff ended up operating together I have trouble determining what came from where.
