7. Railway coupling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_coupling

   A coupling or coupler is a mechanism, typically located at each end of a rail vehicle, that connects them together to form a train. The equipment that connects the couplers to the vehicles is the draft gear or draw gear, which must absorb the stresses of the coupling and the acceleration of the train. Throughout the history of railroading, a ...
