Needing parts

[chadmichaels]

came across two athrean blue box "Soo Line" silver ribbed hoppers. Problem is they are missing the couplers. no big deal there i have a couple bachman sets laying around. what i need is the part that goes on the bottom to hold the couplers in. anyone know where i can find four of them?

You can get them for $3 a dozen at http://www.traindoctor.com/service/hoscale/athearn.asp. If you have any train stores near you, the metal coupler pocket covers are a pretty common part.
