| 800b By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 10/R.5.4.39. 3.B.50. In view of the decision that the 'Silver Dawn' will not be required until the existing Wraith material has been disposed of, we are proposing to send 3.B.50 to France with a cast iron 6-cylinder engine. We understand that there are one or two installation drawings which require completing, and should be glad if these could be dealt with. Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
