Kato Corrugated Passenger Car coupler problem

I’m trying to find out the couplers that were released by Kato to correct problems with the factory couplers on my Santa Fe corrugated passenger cars…sets 106-1502 & 106-1603.

I need to purchase these for both sets and a friend suggested that there was an article in Model Railroader about this when it was announced shortly after the release of the sets.

Might I suggest that you go to the Kato-USA web site and see if they have the information you need. If such factory modification couplers are available they may have them in stock for immediate shipment.

I navigated around the katousa website but didn’t have any success… could not find anything related to replacement couplers for these cars.

It may be there, but I have not been able to locate it.
