| 2 606 To Roy. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AFM. {Anthony F. Martindale} C. By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AFM. {Anthony F. Martindale} 2/MH. {M. Huckerby} 1.2.38. 100 WRAITH CARS. For the 1st. 100 Wraiths the brake lining used must be Thermoid. The Ferodo copy of Thermoid must be thoroughly tested before we can recommend it, and from what little testing we have done, we think it will prove inferior.
