So it is a form of dual coupling. but you need to remove the chopper hook for it to work with 3 link chains properly.

Interestingly it is not fitted to any of the live steam locos featured on the website, just the 2 L&B items of rolling stock.
Removing the chopper hook is easier than ABC :lol: . It is now fitted to all live steam locos :) .

Another case of not updating websites for current production status. I thought it was just Mamod who were guilty of this, and they have only just released a new website which is very poor.
