Paul: The locations I am planning to use the permanent magnet uncouplers are not on the main line, so I am not concerned with accidental uncoupling. Also, the track is already painted and ballasted in these locations, so I am hesitant to install under the track uncouplers.
It will be easy to disguise these uncouplers as road crossings, but I am wondering if the Kadee HO magnets are wide enough to properly uncouple the Kadee 802's on S-scale track.
