These stock  Marklin Northern Pacific steam
engines have Marlin couplers.  The Marklin
couplers on the pilot kept uncoupling so I
super-glued the lead tender and the rear
engine's couplers together.  They don't
come uncoupled anymore!  I bought all my
steam engines (NP and Burlington)
on Ebay from broken-up sets.
 
BTW, Andy Hunting laid this curve "super
elevated" with flex track.  This is one of the
clubs end modules.  The other one has a
mountain hiding the curve.  The top is 2"
foam mounted on plywood with plaster cloth
as a scenery base on top of the foam. You
can see the white cloth next to the cork
roadbed where the scenery is not yet
finished.   tomg
