We'd like to extend our thanks to Jay Scott, who has donated a small stack of original Van Dorn coupler catalogs to the museum. Unfortunately, we don't know what year this was issued. Overall, it's a very interesting piece from the company's marketing department. Enjoy!

That's a great addition to the archive! The style of the publication looks like early Prairie School, and it said it was at least 30 years that the first coupler had been in service. Late 1920's? Nice to have the descriptions of systems developed. Interesting that a number of them used 60 lb rail as a structural member. O.
