Hello-
This is my first post, and I signed up to this forum today. I have a question about KC air brake components which I would like to ask to this group. Looking at various scale drawings there seems to be a difference in KC brake component sizes which I have had verified from a gentleman with KC and KD brake knowledge.

I have come to the conclusion that the larger size, which I will call "standard gauge" size, was used by the D&RGW for their use in their narrow gauge equipment.

Can this be confirmed? Thanks, -Andy Carlson Ojai CA
