Kaydee has a 505 coupler for the Rivarossi 6 wheeled truck.

Since Rivarossi’s wheels and truck are their worst problem,. may I suggest replacing the whole truck with IHC’s metal one (try Walthers or Caboose Hobblies) and Kaddee’s #36 body mount for superior results.
If you have 22"r. curves, I’d just get a set of McHenry long shank couplers.
BUCKEYE TRUCKS?
What do you have - A TENDER? If so, learn to describe what you’re doing.
- Rivarossi (model #) engine with a (describe) Tender.
- A Rivarossi (smooth side - Corregated - Heavyweight) Passenger car.
Hi Don,
A rivarossi six axle heavy duty flat car. The ones that use to have the UMEX caterpillar drag pan fixed to it.
