Well, you obviously haven't seen a Sergent coupler then! That's another
alternative... if you're REALLY picky about prototypical couplers. They
look EXACTLY like the prototype, and work like them, too, complete with
a pin to engage the coupler. They're VERY manual, and very proprietary
(they won't work with Kadees or Kadee-clones). But there's a growing
number of modelers who really want a prototype coupler.
