We only use full size couplers at the Loop. The former White Pass and Yukon equipment has been converted to full size couplers to match the D&RGW equipment that makes up the bulk of the passenger fleet.

Shay 9 has modified Sharon couplers to replace the 3/4 size couplers which were shipped back to Iowa.
