The plan ilhistr.ited employs the same couplerhead for both ends of the engine, the head being pivoted sothat it will swing through a limited arc either way from thecenter line on curves, and this pivot is carried in a steel cast-ing, the inner end of which is shaped to fit in a vertical socket, which forms part of the casting attached to the pilot or to thetender. In the case of the pilot socket this casting is made inthe form of a bracket, as indicated in the drawing. The bottomof the socket in the supporting casting is closed and the coup-ler may be varied in height by placing a wooden block of theproper thickness in the socket, the lowest position of the coup-ler being attained by omitting the block altogether. This ar-rangement renders It very easy to adjust the height of thecoupler, which is done without the use of any tools. The at-tac
