The mounting saddles are spaced on opposite sides of the tank and there is a tube extending within the tank and connecting the saddles which functions as a pipe bracket quick action chamber. There are conduits connecting the saddles in parallel arrangement with the quick action chamber tube for brake cylinder air, brake pipe air and the emergency reservoir.
