That is a drawback of Lionel steam engines, there is no neat and easy way to double head these engines. I have seen a few examples of major modification in my 30 years experience, but I never felt that it was worth the trouble.

There were two companion articles, titled "Doublehead those steamers!", on page 86 of the January, 1999, CTT on how to add front couplers in ways that did not permanently alter the locomotives.
