Bachmann J Class couplers

Hello Group,
I have just acquired 2 Bachmann Spectrum J Class 4-8-4’s with the auxiliary tender’s in the black cardboard sleeves.
From the Spookshow site, manufactured in 2006 DCC ready versions.
Could some please advice as to which MT couplers fit on the tenders?
Do both tenders take the same coupler?
Micro-Trains site only lists Hong Kong versions unless I’m missing it somewhere.
TIA

I would be interested in the answer.  I have two, DCC ready,and one auxiliary tender that I intended to run with some Con-Cor N&W cars. I found that the aux fitted 1015 sits lower than than the MT Height Gauge. Any insights would be appreciated.

If a 1015 sits too low, how about using MTL underslung 2001 or 2004? See attached document.
