Post subject:  TX2 breaking noise brake drums/shoes

Had some new drums and brake shoe's put on my tx2 the other week, When i first go out its fine not a sound from them. After they have warmed up they do nothing but a constant squeaking until the cab stops!every time you hit the break.. horrible sound its driving me round the bend.. sounds like a train that's slammed its breaks on.

Any ides what the problem could be? or crap shoes?

Did they put a smear of copper grease on the metal edges, on the rear, where they contact the holder are they adjusted right??
have they put copper grease on the back of the front break pads and the retaining pins.

Just on the edges where they meet the back plate, its a possibility that a spring may have come loose, so get them checked
