Nearly all modern freight cars (and many older ones) have either one of these two styles of Coupler Platforms to assist crews when they have to pass between two cars.

Included in this set are ten each of the Apex and Morton style platforms. This is a quick part that adds a great deal of detail to a model in a short amount of time.

Installation Instructions

  • Cut the platform out of the etched frame using a sharp hobby knife.
  • Many freight cars come with a very crude plastic strip that is supposed to represent the platform. Simply remove that with a sharp blade and note the direct center.
  • Drill a #80 hole in the lower center of the car at the end (see reference photos to the right).
  • Dip the end of the platform mount in glue and secure in the hole drilled in step three.
