Here is my attempt at brake rigging. The main components are all from the original car, with the castings cleaned up. They aren't the most detailed, but I did not want to spend extra money on this car. The rods are pieces of music wire, and the levers are scrap styrene. I still need to add a main air pipe, and the hand brake rod. For this car, I consider my brake efforts "good enough". I am not sure what the brake rigging looks like on the actual car, but I realized upon assembly that the brake rods may make unloading the car rather difficult (assuming it is unloaded from the bottom).
