	Karol Tyszka (straphan@poczta.fm) The Scharfenberg coupler was developed some time just after World War II in Germany. The idea of it is that you can couple two units physically and electrically through one coupling (instead of a usual coupler and cables). Also, this can be done automatically and within seconds - one vehicle must simply slowly approach another until their couplers meet. Posted by Guest on 2004 Feb 15 22:26:47 +0000
