Hello!
I am becoming interested in model railroading, and I have been looking into equipment. I have done some research, and I believe that I may use Intermountain and Athearn for my locos, as I like their selection. However, I would like to use Bachmann and Athearn rolling stock, due to their selection. Are these couplers directly compatible?
If not, is it possible to just buy couplers from the companies, to install on the front of specific rolling stock so they can be coupled to the engines?
Also, as I'm new to the hobby, what would you recommend me to use for locomotives/rolling stock?
Thanks!
