| DE/SVD. c. RH. {R. Hollingworth} 606 File DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} 2/G.E.9.37. WRAITH - FRONT BRAKES. Please receive herewith G.CD.32 showing the application of tipping shoes to the aluminium front brake shoes. It will be seen that the remainder of the brake operation is unaltered, and the scheme is intended to be used with either aluminium or iron drums. The rating of the control spring of the tipping shoes has been made the same as the present 25/30. Would you please arrange to put details in hand immediately, as this job is urgently required.
