ABSTRACT:
An interlocking mechanism is positioned intermediate first and second end portions of a drawbar member portion of a slackless type drawbar assembly utilized in coupling adjacently disposed ends of a pair of railway freight cars together in a substantially semipermanent fashion. Such interlocking mechanism includes a first elongated member engageable at a first end thereof to an end of a first male connection member. A first at least one plate like member is disposed at a second end of the first elongated member of such interlocking mechanism. There is a first elongated slot formed through such first at least one plate like member. A second elongated member is engageable at a first end thereof to an end of a second male connection member. A second at least one plate like member is disposed at a second end of this second elongated member of such interlocking mechanism and a second elongated slot is formed through such second at least one plate like member which is positioned in alignment with such first elongated slot formed through the first at least one plate like member. There is a plate like connection member disposed in the first elongated slot formed through such first at least one plate like member and the second elongated slot formed through such second at least one plate like member for connecting such first elongated member of the interlocking mechanism to the second elongated member of such interlocking mechanism.
