Kadee couplers: springs versus whiskers

I'm approaching the point where I need another bulk pack of Kadee couplers.  

Traditionally, I get the ones with the stamped brass centering spring (because that's what I've been accustomed to since I adopted Kadee as my standard decades ago).  But there's been a move to "whisker" type couplers for more and more of their product.

So what are your thoughts on the performance of Kadee #5 centering spring couplers versus Kadee #148 whisker couplers?

Decals for number boards arrived!!!

This will be a couple of posts on adding decals to number boards.  Bill Berlinger sent me a set for a locomotive I’m upgrading/updating.  I thought I’d share the journey.
