HCVRR LINK AND PIN COUPLER
We use a simple link and pin coupler with a sprung shank. We have our own patterns and pour them from aluminum. This keeps it simple. Full scale link and pin couplers were known to leave many a man minus a few fingers at least. At 2 1/2" scale, they are quite safe. They are a very dependable coupler and very easy to use. They will not uncouple accidentally, yet to uncouple, one need only to pull the pin.
MY BROTHER BUILT THE CABOOSE BELOW. HE USED WOOD FOR THE FRAME, BUT THE SIDING IS A PLASTIC TONGUE AND GROOVE IMMITATION WOOD. REAL NICE STUFF. I NEED TO ADD ALL THE HARDWARE AND DETAILS. HOPE TO HAVE IT IN SERVICE SOON.
