Hi Everyone (first post)
I’m hoping that this is an appropriate group to pose this question.
I have a couple of what appears to be a flexible trailer hitches. The part
consists of 2 2x2 flat plates connected via a thin somewhat flexible section.
its all one piece and is white.
Unfortunately I don’t have a picture of it. Ideas?
Thanks in advance

Malcolm,
I have three of these and while I am not certain, instinct tells me these
are for train systems.
If no-one else knows what we’re talking about, I can post a picture somewhere.

I have a few of these, too. They were made in the 1960s, and look like this:
 650 Hinge Coupling-Nylon
I’ve colored it completely white there, but it’s really more of a translucent
white. The LDraw color code is 62 or 63 (LUGNET can’t display those). Here’s a
picture from Peeron:
They came in sets with the really old wheels. Here’s the Peeron page about it:
