I just noticed this morning that Modelbahn Kramm are advertising a model of an Rhb Ge4/4  ki in N gauge by a new manufacturer MADE models.Basic models priced at 147-50 euros but there are various models with DCC and sound as well

Now is this compatible? Interesting to say the leas

 

After posting this I found a post about them on another forum which confirms they are compatible with Kato

The scale is right, but it looks as if they use Rapidos rather than the Kato coupler design. Not sure if they could be changed either.

 

It would solve a lot of problems if Kato were to tool a variant of the couplers they use on the RhB stock which simply clips into a standard Rapido pocket. Much like the 11-703 Shibatas. You could fit them to standard bogies under 3d printed models and scratchbuilds then.
