Has anyone tried mounting SHS #1295 couplers, with or without the #00588 adapter bar, to any diesel carbody other than the F-3; to include the FP-7s, brass E- units, etc. I understand this would not be feasible the nose ends, just the back ends. Has anyone tried using Kadee #451 extended swing and metal whisker coupler sets on the passenger cars and other long cars. This would be for having a body-mounted coupler of more reasinable shank length.
