Indeed.

The early locomotives built by Gooch for Brunel's Great Western had notoriously poor brakes, so much so that IKB was questioned on this point during the debates on why he thought broad gauge should be retained.

When asked if the brakes were poor he responded to the effect they were were hopeless, but he pointed out that to stop quickly one had only to throw the engine into reverse!
