Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Da. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to CJ. c. to Wor. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} c. to Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Da {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} 3/M11.11.22. 40/50 FRONT WHEEL BRAKES X.4428. We send herewith N.sch.1345 shewing a modification to N.sch.1317 to provide a pull-off spring on the operating shaft. It will be seen that in place of the forged lug on the axle a turned pillar could be used if it is desired to use up the existing axle forgings. Da. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
