Hi guys... I just within the hour returned from a buying trip to NYC. I tried to answer one question on the fly.... I don't think I understood the problem at that time. The auction states.. 'Unfortunately this suffered some damage and has broken couplers.' OK I see where that might be a little confusing. The damage I was referring to is the broken couplers. Hopefully this will clear this up. Stay tuned for another great collection that's still in the truck and will start showing up on this site Tuesday.
