The Duoservo brake system on the 193 car Marquette features self energisation and servo action with two shoes linked by an adjustable screw. Front shoe is primary when moving forward, rear shoe acts as secondary, and rear becomes primary when moving backward. Simplicity, easy adjustment, and low pedal effort are emphasized.
