Yes, the brakes are indeed 'Weinmann' Not a brand I've heard of, but components can be upgraded, but the frame is the bike really, especially with these.
Thanks for the copious details, I will be in touch re: trying it out. Will arrive on a suitably valuable steed ;)
My 1973 Raleigh Record has Weinmann brakes just like that, surprisingly powerful once I swapped the original shoes for modern ones
