combination knuckle/link coupler on 5917? I can't recall ever seeing one of those. I'm curious to see how they work, and if the transformation from one to the other is simple or complicated.

G'day I will get one in the near future, I know you just lift the link out of the way and pull the coupler around to the centre and he presto you can couple to autos, it wasn't the only fitted with this sort of coupler. Hooroo for now Date: 06/13/14 16:04 Re: Eveleigh something different Author: bakersfielddave i have the railroads instruction manual for these couplers somewhere around the house

When the former Spanish passenger trainset arrived in Chile, they fitted the station switchers with buffers, etc. to be able to move the trains around. Units retained their standard knuckle couplers too which are all that are used here. |
