| N/W {London Repair Depot / Derby Works} By bob Br {T. E. Bellringer - Repair Manager} /BkS/W.12.10.38. re Wraith Brakes. We have recently had sent to us copies of the adjustments for the Wraith brake mechanism. These were accompanied by photostats showing the different length of rods, etc. etc. We note on reading through paragraph G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} that rods R.7, and R.8 are mentioned. There appears to be no mention of these rods on the photostat. Have these letters been inadvertently omitted from the rods either side of L.B.? Perhaps you will be good enough to look into this and let us have your reply. There is no reference on the written copy of adjustments which we have in our possession, otherwise we would have written to the person responsible. BkS | ||
