The appearance of the register entry has been imitated as nearly as possible, typos included
**According to the Westinghouse "LN" air brake manual, the L2 triple valve fits the 12" and 14" brake cylinders, while the 16" brake cylinder requires an L3 triple valve. It appears this register disagrees with itself.
