| Ref. Mr Royce's note on M4/B7212. Members of the Tech. Committee Re central brake drum. 22.4.12. TBB18/L22412. With reference to the preliminary tests with the foot brake applied to the rear shoes, Mr Royce says :- "Still further tests have been suggested on later sheets. I am not happy in my mind yet that emergency brake is best on the road wheels, but I hope it will be found satisfactory."
