I read your tutorial, Harold. It looks good. I don't normally like the McHenry's, Bachmanns, or other Kaddee knockoffs, particularly for ho scale. McHenry's are better than some of the others because they have the brass springs. In ho scale with long, modern trains, the plastic is not strong enough to hold the trains coupled. I think with the vintage you are modeling where 10 cars is probably a long train, they would work well. Great idea.
