Av8,
The top picture is the running brake with the emergency brake carrier and band installed, the lower picture is just the running brake shoes before the carrier is installed

Here is a picture of a front brake setup for the '30/'31 AA's and the rear service brake set up for a '29 AA (which should be the same for all AA's with emergency brakes except the backing plate).
