does anyone have any of the pockets that bachmann used to hold the couplers to the trucks? i bought some good looking cars on ebay & by the time they made it to me the usps was kind enough to destroy a few cars, break a few trucks & the ones they didn't break, the coupler pockets was broken on. i only need about 6 of the pockets & maybe a couple sets of trucks. i can buy this stuff new but figured i would check with you all first. thanks

Better off with new ones. I know from experience! Its your chance to upgrade. Micro Trains make nice stuff. Try Jerry aka amc gremlin gt.

micro trains does make nice stuff, but i'm a certified cheap bastard!!! just ask my wife. lol
not only that, i'm still unsure if i even like the size of them. sure you can do a lot in a small space, but you lose a lot of visual because it's just so small.
