Martindale} 1/R.8.12.36. 35-EX - REAR BRAKES. Will you please fit N.Sch.4778 to the rear brakes of this car before it goes to France. This is a scheme for protecting the oilite bushes of the rear bell crank levers from water by means of leather washers. Owing to a seizure having occurred on 36-EX, it is important to run this in France. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AFM. {Anthony F. Martindale} | ||
