I’m interested in the location of the vertical brake staff.

That is a very unusual uncoupling lever on the flatcar with what appears to be a third eye bolt attached to the casting housing  the coupler.  Any ideas which road had that style of flatcar uncoupling levers?

Flat car is unidentified.

Other than the blocking the crawlers don’t seem to be secured by and cables or chains.
