Coupling Train. As cars came together for coupling, it was necessary for a switchman to guide the link in the socket by hand, then drop the pin through the link at the right instant. It was simply an iron loop, or link, that was held in sockets on adjoining cars by a vertical pin. Railroad couplers work through a pair of steel knuckles that automatically lock into place. This device has been modified and changed many Fully automatic couplers are also commonplace on high speed trains, as well as multiple units and mass transit vehicles. There are two different kinds of couplers in the units: Railroad coupling, device by which a locomotive is connected to a following car and by which succeeding cars in a train are linked. The first couplings were chains with solid buffers to help absorb shock during braking. In the uk and continental europe, buffer and chain couplers are used where a worker must make the connection manually. A coupler, or coupling, is a device for joining rail vehicles in a train.
