| W/K. To KC. from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 261 Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 1/AP.14.7.37 B.61.FC. GWH. {George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} handed to us the pinion bearing from this car yesterday. In view of the fact that the balls have worn about .025" on the diameter, we should very much like a sample of the lubricant from this axle, and also think it is very important that it should be changed. Can you please arrange this for us.? Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Gry {Shadwell Grylls} ½ | ||
