| X4050 To Wd. {Mr Wood / Mr Whitehead} from Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 3/LG22.7.20. X.421. X.4050. RE RUDGE-WHITWORTH DETACHABLE WIRE WHEELS. With reference to the attached we should be interested to know from Messrs. Rudge-Whitworth what demount-able rims were used in conjunction with the Rudge-Whitworth wheel. We assume that the cars would certainly be fitted with straight sided tyres and would therefore have to have some form of demountable rim. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
