In connecting the duplicate air-pipewith the valve-box above described, and the other pipe may be used to operate thebrakes. An arrangement of valves forthis purpose is shown in the diagram-matic plan, Fig. s, where A and B rep-resent the two air-pipes; C, the brake-cylinder; R, the auxiliary reservoir; T,the triple-valve arrangement, above de-scribed; D1 and D~, double valves, suchas that marked D in Fig.

From this arrangement it will be seenthat one of the pipes—such as A—may beemployed to charge the reservoir R, thecompressed air from A passing by the one To Air Gauge Main Reservoir Pressure To Air GaugeMain ReservoirPressure C To Air GaugeTrain LinePressure To EqualizingReservoir ffl.
