In locomotive has a simple four bar mechanism there is no any sliding or rolling or screw contact. It has only the Turing contact.

Coupling Rod of a locomotive is the inversion mechanism of Four bar chain Mechanism.
Therefore, It consists only turning Pairs (4nos).
Therefore, It consists only turning Pairs (4nos).

Crank mechanism is the inversion of 4 bar mechanism, which is so meant coupling rod of locomotive.

In locomotive mechanism the rotary motion give only one crank they transfer to lever, the lever transmit to another crank which connect to other wheel of railway.

A question-coupling rod consists of only turning pairs-it is a crank-crank mechanism. Are these things related? please explain.

It is a inversion mechanism of four bar chain. So that is a turning.

4 bar mechanism having 4 turning pairs.

Here in this case, all the pairs are lower pairs that mean links with surface contact. And here bottom link is fixed and the rotary motion of the adjacent link to the fixed link causes the rotation of the opposite link of the adjacent link to the fixed link. And the fourth link acks as a leaver which is reciprocates and connected to the other wheel causes second wheel link to rotate.
