Thanks for the quick help.
This is reason why I had to ask. I got two dummies to be paired with powered SW1500. The 21 and 22 on the read track got a sibling.
It was the first time I got a blue box dummy. The wheels are of plastic. I replaced them with standard Athearn axils. They will be required anyhow when LEDs are installed. Some of the clips holding the couplers are missing and I mounted the coupler packets "as usual". That was a failure. They need to be mounted a tad higher. Need to do the windows too but have only one set left....
One handrail wire was missing. I made a new one from scratch and thought about American fathers at about my age how often did you do new handrails from wire when your son has damaged one. Those old blue box models are the perfect family models. Dad can really fix problems. Todays Dads don't look so good when the iPad got belly up
