Dan:
The Mechanical Department came up with a name for the "device" you
referred to. When cabooses were no longer used, there was no one on
the rear end to close the angle cock and "pull the pin" allowing the pusher
to cut off "on the fly". This new device had the capability of twisting the
angle cock and uncoupling the pushers. In Mechanical Department lingo,
it was the "air hose sucker and knuckle chucker".
