| 7D X1042 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 3/KW.17.9.36. GAE-20. Half a gallon of oil was added to this car from the time it left Derby to the time it returned. The oil consumption should be checked. There was a very bad gear lever rattle. The isolated change gear lever should be fitted as soon as possible. There is a bad rattle under the offside front of the car, which sounds like a brake rope. This should be checked up and eliminated. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
