Hook and Loop Modified Coupler for Aristocraft G-Scale Trains

At Christmas we set up a large G-scale train layout around the Christmas tree in the living room. I have a USA Trains GP38-2 locomotive that really shouldn't be going around the tight 2 foot radius curves we have. The hook and loop coupler on the locomotive usually pulls the following car off the tracks when it navigates the turns. To solve this problem, I my brother and I designed a wider "loop" coupler that was installed on the Aristocraft box car behind the locomotive. The solution works beautifully! Instructions Standard setting on Makerbot Rep 2 (10% infill, 200 micron layers) Raft, no supports.
