Tech/Engineering - Transport / Transportation / Shipping / add-on to a locomotive
German term or phrase: Regelzugeinrichtung
Verwendung einer Regelzugeinrichtung gem. UIC

it seems to be a device used in the coupling of railcars which also has the potential to increase the load capacity of towed rolling stock

Here is a quote from another article unrelated to the one I´m working on: Das Fahrzeug ist nach wie vor mit Regelzugeinrichtung ausgerüstet und somit mit anderen Fahrzeugen im Verband einsetzbar.
