Reply to "Lionel Pre-War latch and box couplers"

Box couplers came into use in 1936. the 2 rib box was in use to 1938+/-, then a simulated knuckle cast box was used until the end of prewar.

Frank, best to try to buy a junk car with the coupler/truck assembly intact.  You are missing the coupler shank, a circle clip to attach the shank to the truck. It can be fixed without removing truck.
