What part is most likely fail to cause buckeye coupler to break; the jaw, the hinge pin, the locking pin, or the coupler head itself? So far, I know that the two couplers are locked together by the pin dropping into the locking pin hole, that was back when I was in Thailand, but I just noticed that some North American rail cars employ buckeye knuckle that has lever connected to the pin from the bottom (in stead of above) of the knuckle, and the knuckle looks a bit different from what I have seen so far. Do they work in the same manner like I have described above? Thanks! <br /> <br />Karn[:)]
