A brakeman peers out from his post of a Tri-Ang celestory coach prior to
departure. Got these out of the UK, missing couplers. Thinking of installing
scale link and chain couplings.

| I like the Tri-ang coach a lot, I have a few of them myself in different colors. The british don't have brakemen on their trains they have Guards. Also you need to put a screw coupling on passenger coaches, rather like tight lock couplings to stop the train from banging back and forth, could upset your cup of tea.

Mine for this week is a Ideal Gas storage area. It appears to be identical to the Gilbert one.

Yes, they're called Guards, and they combine the roles of conductor, brakeman, and flagman
