I have some photos of the export left hand drive set up which may be useful to you.  It has coupled foot brake and a separate handbrake cable linked up to a system not unlike the early handbrakes:

From memory the separate handbrake rope was simply attached to the side of the coupled rope using a longer than normal bolt. I will try to make one up and photograph for you.
