N scale MU hoses (cut levers too)

Question, the BLMA one  - is this enough to do one loco?

http://www.modeltrainstuff.com/product-p/blma-100.htm

Are there any other brand of MU hoses that peeps here like?

Also, I assume BLMA cut levers are "da bomb" too?

I use the BLMA hoses. There is 18- 3 hose and 10- 4 hose on each.

Will the BLMA "modern" cut levers work for Alcos and other older motive power?

Example:

Without looking at a picture, the modern cut levers have that U shaped handle that is easier to grab and is only appropriate for mid to late 70' and beyond.

Roger. Scratch is the only option for early 1970s era I guess. Thanks!
