Need one bolt on coupler pocket and matching short shank coupler for mounting on steam loco pilot beam. One from an industrial diesel loco such as a GE 44 Tonner might work. -J. Herron |

Will the attached pocket work for you? I no longer need it. Located in NJ. If interested I can take some measurements. Roughly speaking its about 20" long, maybe 80 pounds. Its now cleaned up and painted black. Was going to use it on a 3' gauge car but have since sold the car without the pocket. My email is jrmay@monmouth.com or 732-330-1876. Thanks, J.R. May Wall, NJ

No idea on its origins. I bought it from a guy in Ohio to use on a wooden car we were building to go with my Porter. It just has a classic look to it. If there was interest I can go over to my storage unit over the weekend and take more pictures and measurements. It is looking for a good home. J.R. |

I have a short shank coupler that I was thinking of scrapping. Have to grab a couple of pics of it. |

Thanks to all who have responded. I'm enclosing a photo of the missing coupler pocket and coupler. Not sure if this was a standard BLW casting or one from one of their suppliers. -Jim Herron

Hello, I have a bolt on coupler you may be interested in. Just let me know. It is located in Minnesota. It is off our NP Shop engine 10 before we changed it back to L-4 927. Here are some pictures. http://www.ironhorsecentral.com/101_3406.JPG http://www.ironhorsecentral.com/101_3407.JPG http://www.ironhorsecentral.com/101_3408.JPG http://www.ironhorsecentral.com/101_3409.JPG Sincerely, Erik Thompson |
