| LID {A. J. Lidsey} 8180 To Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from Sg. {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Experimental 40/50 Cars. Sg {Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} 10/E14.12.32 Copy to Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} C. [text is struck through] Thanks for Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Lid. {A. J. Lidsey} 4/MA.8.12.32. I am pleased to note that you can reduce the number of experimental P.II cars. The suggestion of scrapping the body on 22-EX and replacing it with the body at present on 25-EX is agreed. I note that chassis 25-EX is in good condition but needs a little money spending on it to put it in saleable standard condition and should be glad if you would have this done, and I am asking the Export Dept. to make an effort to dispose of it.
