1252. FAY, CHARLES, Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, Manchester.
Continuous railway-carriage breaks. These breaks are powerful and simple, and in their self-adjusting motion possess a great advantage over any other. The blocks will be worn out without any regulation being required, by means of this motion, which at the same time prevents the guard from working them too far from the periphery of the wheels. The breaks may be seen in use on the London and North Western, Great Northern, North Eastern, Lancashire and Yorkshire, West Midland, and other railways.
