If it I'm not being too much of a PITA could someone please post some pictures of different couplers and label them as what breed they are? Also, on the hooked horned couplers, is the horn supposed to represent the air hoses? Thanks so much guys, Dave:confused:
 
The horn is not supposed to represent the air hoses. It's there to be tripped by an uncoupling ramp that would push the horns together and pull the hooks apart. I always found it to be a hit and miss operation, mostly miss.

These are the three types of couplers I use most of the time.
