| To By.. from GWH. {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /GWH. {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} 14/N.15.6.38. Bentley I am forwarding the worn brake actuating shaft mentioned in my memo for your examination. ( It is scrap). I should appreciate your views re the reason of the peculiar wear. It looks to me like an electrical effect between the bronze bush and the steel shaft, water playing a part. GWH. {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} | ||
