Is there any known reason for this setup? was it a test?

It is air aftercooler piping, unique to engine 1226; one 
Y-6 (2152 I believe) also had this arrangement.  It goes from the pumps to 
the main reservoir.
 
I don't have drawings, and I'm not sure the Archives has 
any.  If it was up to me, I'd model another A . . .

 I am looking for information on the unique circulation piping on 
#1226. The piping appears on the left (fireman) side, on the rear engine, just 
above the walkway, and appears to have two sections extending across both the 
firebox and flues area. What does it do and where does it come from and go back 
to. I also need drawings to replicate to 1:48 scale if available or a source 
for.
See picture number(s) for visual. NW00837 . May be unique to this loco, 
#1226, and may be experimental to the period, 1956-7. Not seen on any other 'A' 
in the N&WRYHS archive.
THNX,
Vern Howard
