Good morning all.

In my continued efforts to better understand the air brakes on our passenger cars, I would like to seek out parts diagrams/catalogs for UC and L type brakes. Any information out there would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Mike for taking the time to scan and post the books. The written explanations in them of what is happening in the triple valves during brake operations are very helpful.

Thank you. Looks like a good sart.

I just wanted to pass along this wonderful site for used/rare books. Railroad manuals are easily found using the search feature.
