Well... almost.  I have found that the couplers (Kadee and Sergent both) on my 
SHS SW-1 are a tad bit high when installed directly (without a spacer) to the 
model in a Kadee gear box.  And I also remember that one of the intermodal cars 
(was it the AM spine cars?  Or the SSA well car?) was too high as well and 
required a good bit of work to correct.

So, almost... but not quite.

Tuner)


  As someone who is relatively new to S but who has worked extensively in HO, 
I'm actually pretty impressed by how consistent S scale equipment is, in terms 
of axle length, coupler height, etc. I found HO products to be all over the map 
in this regard. Perhaps it's because there are fewer manufacturers in S, but 
everything - even brass - seems to have the correct coupler height...
