@@Inalienablerights15 I could make the argument it's not quite the same. These locomotives can't run entirely on electricity like a Prius battery enables. It's just the traction motors on the axles are electrically powered and thus turn the wheels.

Truck mounted couplers are called talgo trucks & I hate 'em too. I always cut them off and body mount Kadee couplers. I always change out the plastic wheelsets for Walthers Proto metal wheelsets with metal axles. I'm presently working on 6 Central of Georgia passenger cars (unknown manufacturer) changing the talgo truck couplers to body mounted Kadee's. The couplers were put on the metal piece that stuck out from the trucks and I had to use a Dremel with a cut-off wheel to make a slice in the metal, then I just wiggled them back 'n forth until they broke. Then I filed them down. I ended up breaking a set of trucks and had to order some Walthers passenger car trucks. I also weigh everything and add appropriate Harbor Freight wheel weights to bring the weights to NMRA standards. A Kadee tap & drill set for 2-56 screws is a must and have several sizes of 2-56 screws on hand. Happy railroading. Cheers from eastern TN
