it takes two hands, one to get both at the same level, the other to lift both latches and join or seperate them. I prefer them over the box couplers.

the latch couplers can try your patience....but I still like them.

Over the years I have developed a fondness for pre war cars, expecially lithographed ones. While I have replaced latch couplers on some many have the originals. I am constantly having problems with uncoupling. Any good advise out there on getting the old ones adjusted right? Box couplers are more reliable but I hate to change everything over. It is no wonder Lionel took over when the knuckle coupler came out.
