IDing/Finding an Old Drawbar

Recommended Posts

I purchased a few months ago an HO OHaFu 12 from Kato. In the box was a drawbar that connect at boths ends and has a dummy coupler in the middle. Note: this is an older model and has a brown box.

When I bought a new OHaFu 12 (green box), it came with a pair of drawbars that could be separated. These clip together, but do not have any means of stopping vertical motion, which why I need the solid drawbar in the first place, as the HO club's track is...uh...less than ideal...

Besides, the old one looks nicer.

With two OHa 12 coaches in the mail, does anyone know where I could find this older style of drawbar?

If all else fails, I will be buying some EMU couplers (even though it's not realistic) and using those with a dual function on either end of my locomotive.

I am determined to have the only perfect-running passenger train there.
