I just uploaded a reefer twin pack that includes Eric's mods and can replace the original R-70-20 reefer and enhancement uploads and adds an R-70-24 version as well.

Yes. There is an error in the coupler bin for the manual coupling setting. The fix is included in the twin pack.
If you have Larry's (Mainelines) original PFE mechanical Reefer this will give you the same car and a new variant, plus some tweaks to the brakes and coupler.

People can uninstall the original PFE reefer using the Package manager and then install the twin pack.

Larry also brought up something I hadn't thought of before. If someone installs any of the boxcars or the hopper he did originally, it will overwrite my coupler fix. So if someone has thought of adding any of Larry's other cars, do that first, then install the twin pack of reefers last so the couplers are fixed for all of them. (They all use the same coupler folder)

This should work the way I did:
I did not uninstall the original reefer.
I uninstalled the enhancing (first fix). This removes the wrong couplingZ folder.
I installed the twin pack (which includes also Eric's fixes). Actually this overwrites everything.

However it seems the twin pack has everything, including the original reefer. This would mean that both the original reefer and the enhancer should be removed from the library?

Let's see if I understood well about the couplings.
If I install any of the other reskins for Larry's reefer that have just been uploaded, you are suggesting to install again the twin pack in order to keep your couplings fix. Am I right? !DUH!
