    It was a common trick to clamp the wrapper leaf to the main leaf to get oneself home with a broken spring, (Spring clamps for this purpose were a priority inclusion in one's tool box when running Leyland and Albion coaches around the Centre in the 70's) or perhaps pack the axle to the chassis with a stump or two in emergencies, but I haven't come across this particular use of a wooden block before. Will be interesting I am sure.

    I can look in the morning for you if you wish and will report
