The uncoupling lever is an option that can be added to any car or locomotive and tender. It keeps your fingers safely out of the coupler area when uncoupling trains.
To install the uncoupling lever 6 holes were drilled and tapped for the supplied 10-24 screws. The chain was 2 links too long so I cut off 2 links with a pair of bolt cutters. Shown is the uncoupling lever installed and unpainted.

Looking good, looks like all you need now is a rivet gun.
