Thanks to Ted Culotta,
there is a fundametal step by step article how to rig brake details: http://www.steamerafreightcars.com/model...smain.html
And thanks to the article of Ted Culotta i have learned brake rigging by heart "make toy trains lookking like real model trains".
Intermountain tank car with incomplete brake details.
Drill hole were they are needed.
Bend and fit wires. This was one of my former efforts with 0.5mm brass wire.
Caboose are fitted with still one lever more in their brake gear, because each end platform has a brake wheel. This was done completely scratch with parts out of the grab box.
