0. Abstract of the Disclosure A lock-out apparatus for shock absorbing draft gear on a railway car, which draft gear has a housing adapted to be fixed to one end of the railway car. Shock absorbing means are provided in the housing to cushion shock on the coupler of a railway car at the one end. The shock absorbing means includes at least one movable shock absorbing member operatively connected to the coupler and cushion means co- operating with the movable member to cushion shock. The lock- out apparatus has a locking member slidably mounted in the housing for movement between a locking and an unlocking posi- tion. There are moving means for moving the locking member, and means connecting the moving means to a brake line on the railway car whereby a change in the pressure of the fluid in the brake line will operate the moving means to move the locking member to a locking position to prevent movement of the movable shock absorbing member and to thus lock out the draw gear.
