ABSTRACT:
A striker assembly for end-of-car hydraulic cushioning devices includes a housing which is connected to the shank of the coupler. The coupler shank is provided with an elongated slot which is connected to a transversely extending key carried in key supporting slots provided in vertical side walls of the housing. The key has a pair of transversely spaced notches which are engaged by vertical retaining pins supported within the housing. One of the retaining pins is movable outwardly from the housing which thereupon permits the key to be removed through one of the key supporting slots whereby the coupler is readily removable.
