Coupling Wagons
Note: a wagon can have 2, 1 or no couplinghooks attached.
Only wagons with a couplinghook can be coupled to other wagons and to locomotives.
Couplinghooks available for coupling will light up with green color.
If the couplinghook is linked, it will turn unlit red color.
When both coupled wagons are equiped with a couplinghook on the coupled side, the link strength will be doubled.
That means less chance of derailment.
