Dear Chuck:
Thank you for your answer. As I like to run steeplecab
electrics and my minimum radius for this is 20 inches, I am glad to hear
this will work.

I regularly couple with KD 802s or 808s on track down to 20" rad., as
long as there aren't sharp S turns.
I also have a GP9 with body mounted couplers that pulls a coal train. It
would pull following hopper off at the transition from straight to curve
on 20" radius with "claws". I replaced the claws with KD 80xs and the
derailments stopped. Seems they will handle pretty sharp curves as long
as the interface is body mount to body mount and centering springs are
free..
