Can anyone help with the location of a drawing for the brake blocks on a standard LNER brake van.
We are looking for the drawing of a 10A block so we can get a pattern made prior to casting new blocks.
The van in question is 246710 at Newbridge on the NYMR built Darlington 1941
We have had a quick look in the usual spots such as Search Engine with no luck.

Failing that does anybody know the dimensions (in particular the thickness) of the wearing surface when new? As we may have to produce a drawing ourselves using an old block as a template.

Thanks
