Summary of Issue

Specification chart on page 11 pertaining to the Tie Rod Style Piston Brake Chamber Data makes reference to the word "size" for the type of brake chamber.

Justification or Need

Clarification - the use of the word SIZE has an effect on the out-of-service item 1.b.(2)(a) pertaining to air chamber sizes.

Request for Action

Change the word SIZE to the word TYPE for the purpose of consistency with the other kinds of brake chamber specification charts.
