A two-piece brake shoe is disclosed wherein each piece of the brake shoe has a free end and an end portion opposite the free end that is designed to be inter-fitting with an end portion of the other piece of the brake shoe. Each piece of the brake shoe has a brake lining on its outer surface. The two pieces of the brake shoe can be assembled together to form a C-shaped brake shoe having a gap between the free ends of the two pieces of the brake shoe. An actuator enlarges the gap between the free ends of the two pieces of the brake shoe to apply a brake in which the two-piece brake shoe is installed.
