I'll gladly withdraw my comment and agree with Mr. Loizeaux. It appears a different head-size indicator is needed. I'd like to continue using #5s on some cars, but have realized that the #118 tightlocks tried on several engines and passenger cars is not size-feasible. The attachments were finally reachable. DJE

The TruGage coupler gauge (gage) is the best available gauge for checking S-scale Kadee-style couplers.
