ABSTRACT:
A combination knuckle hanger and knuckle pin holder tool for holding the knuckle and knuckle pin of a railway coupler, in which the knuckle and knuckle pin may be held in position from the coupler during internal repairs. The tool has a fork shaped base portion which is adapted to be inserted into the casting holes of a railway coupler in order to releasably secure the tool to the coupler. A holder cup is rigidly attached to the curved portion of the fork for holding the knuckle pin during the repairs, and an angled knuckle hanging peg is also attached to the curved portion of the fork for hanging the knuckle during repairs, thereby allowing the knuckle and knuckle pin to be conveniently stored on the coupler during the repair of the internal coupler parts.
