[Handwritten signature] Car Heaters: ------------ With further reference to Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Std9/MH. {M. Huckerby} 2.9.38, we are glad to say that mounted in our Trials Car - as you suggested - we found the S.2.C.A. heater to be reasonably satisfactory and we propose to fit it in future whenever we are called on for a heater and the customer does not specially ask for one of another make or type. Whilst on this subject, we would refer to your Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Std4/MH. {M. Huckerby} 3.9.38 on the subject of rheostatic switches. We do not appear to have heard the result of By {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /RD's negotiations with Lucas. Can we be told the position please?. Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} | ||
