What's the trick to assembling Kadee couplers that have the centering spring (a coil spring) between the coupler hole and the bolster?
(This kind, for those who don't know what I am talking about)
I have an Atlas Thrall Gondola with narrow scale width coupler pockets. I had to transplant a pair of Kadee #78s (they come pre-assembled) into the Atlas pockets. Half an hour and 20+ missing springs later, I finally got them in. (They use the same springs as the knuckle springs on the #5 couplers)
