Duplicated content
[edit]Substantially the same content is now duplicated at Coupling (railway) and Coupler. We should standardise on one and make the other a redirect or disambiguation page. The accurate content at Coupler predates Coupling (railway), so that might be an argument in one direction. The word 'coupler' is more common in US English, while 'coupling' is more common in British English (probably because a European railway coupling is not a single device, but rather the combination of hook and chain for draft forces and buffers for buff force). —Morven 07:24, Jan 26, 2005 (UTC)
Duplicated article
[edit]Since no-one else saw fit to do so, I have now changed this page to a disambiguation page. Nearly all the text that was in this article now appears at Coupling (railway), along with much of what was already there, and a few additions by several people. I hope this simplifies things. There are, after all, several other devices known as "couplers", and they ought to have links here on this page. ------- Kelisi 2005/1/28
