| Chateauroux(French test region). Indre. France. Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} I/Crn.5.9.26. X3588 To: "Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} " From: "Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} ". Lytton & Greatorex will be crossing over on the Monday night boat from Le Havre. I am endeavouring to get the vertical pivot axles and castor pivots back to Derby as soon as possible, so that we can conduct tests which were frustrated out here. I am going from Le Havre to Paris to try the "Lorraine-Dietrich" and therefore hope to be back at Works on Friday. [Signature: Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} ] | ||
