I remember that Marklin produced a coupling change over from claw couplings to hoop couplings but that was in the 1940's 10 years before this coupling was introduced. Does anybody know what wagon or the intended purpose of this assembly. Roger

As to which wagon? Probably quite a few back in the day...

I remembered that in the 1939 and 1940 catalogue there was an image of the item and it was purpose is to convert claw coupling wagons into hoop wagons. The image shows the nickle Bugelkupplung Type 4 and I did not realise that Marklin produced this item right up to 1957. It makes sense as the would have been a new version for every coupling variation. Copy of the catalogues and photo of a 364 wagon. Roger
