Anyone have a picture of this? ..seen a number of various routes/ curves/ and bends (all hack jobs) between where the brake pipe emerges through the Napoleon hat, then ends up going rearward along the left side of the tunnel. What's the proper route/look? thanks everyone.

Sorry for all the crud but this is a '51 split that was driven for 11 years then parked so this should be factory.

So then you would not need brake lines any more, considering that you already have the upgraded Flintstones brake kit Laughing
