Without pics of the items in question, my first thought is you're referring to the coil loads. Some of the cars came with 2 large coils and 2 small coils.
Check this link to see pics of the coils...
You can also purchase extra coils.

Hi David thanks for the reply. I should have been more clear. I will try to post a pic. Not sure if I can without a computer though.
GREAT...the two bridges go across the wells that hold the coils one on each side of the car they keep the coils separated from each other while in transit. In effect they divide the space where the coils sit. The other items are simply train airline hoses and bracket !!I use these to detail the fronts of engines that dont have a trainline airhose . conrail john
I always wondered what the additional parts were for too. The bridge parts made sense, but it appears the air hoses only apply to the 2-rail version of the car (or for owners wishing to convert the 3-rail car to a 2-rail version). Since the 3-rail version has a different coupler with built in brake hose detail, this part would not be needed.
