Bachmann Colletts

I have acquired two Bachmann Collett brakes but the corridor connectors are dreadfully damaged (brittle plastic) and need total replacement.

Bachmann support is a non-starter therefore the only option is aftermarket connections- is there a supplier of a round top corridor connector for these coaches?

I'm sure I've seen things like this on one of the 'Hornby and Bachmann spares' stands at major shows like Southampton. Failing that there used to be cast whitemetal ones available, I think from Comet.

I have a sneaky feeling that Modellers Mecca do different types of gangway.

Keen Systems produce GWR corridor connections which are lightly sprung and should be suitable.
