I wanted my Sakura Tram to be like a single unit Street car/Trolley its why I bought it. But to make it look that way I had to remove the rear coupling. This was easy and might be fine by itself but I thought it left an ugly view of the opening of the coupling compartment. I wanted to come up with an idea that just wasn't permanently gluing a piece of plastic to cover the opening. I wanted something that could easily be installed and removed in case, in the future, one would want to return it to a coupled end.
 
This is what I came up with. I call it the 'Coupling Plug'. I could have taken the time to try and mix a paint color to match the burgundy which would look perfect. I could have also matched the gold stripe too but I didn't want to take all the time experimenting with mixes to get a match. Maybe in the future but for now this will have to do.
