A hitch connection for connecting a lead or "A" trailer to a "B" trailer is disclosed. The hitch connection comprises a female sub-assembly which fits inside the chassis of the "A" trailer at the rear of that trailer. A male sub-assembly which includes a turnplate supported on a chassis includes a tapered prong which locates in the female assembly and is held inside with locking pins. The prong includes a transverse pivot which extends parallel to the axle to allow the prong to pivot relative to the chassis The "B" trailer may be readily separated from the "A" trailer by removal of the locking pins to allow removal of the prong from the female sub-assembly thus allowing unfettered access to the rear of the "A" trailer. The hitch connection may also be used for towing a single trailer behind a non-articulated truck having a fixed body
