Drummond 700 “Black motor”

The latest arrival on Pix Valley is a Drummond 700 “Black motor” 30698. A superb model but with a couple of quirks, both the couplings fall off the chassis the triangular moulding on the NEM housing is to narrow and the other issue is fitting a DCC chip into the tender there is not enough room with the three weights . Anybody had the same issues? I opted for the recommended small 8pin chip from Hattons.
