Mk1 Buffers

Close up shot of the end buffers in their retracted position. They retract so they are behind the gangway connection which absorbs the forces when coupled by buckeye, so the end buffers are redundant. The collars, for when they are extended in order to couple to a locomotive without a buckeye, is stored on the hook next to the buffer.
