Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wst. 1113 Kingsbury June 14th.1937 25/30. The Kingsbury Depot was called out today on a breakdown which turned out to be a 25/30. The owner was blaming the Petrol Pump, but investigation found the fault to be due to a faulty low tension lead to the coil. The wire had broken inside the insulation at approximately the position where the terminal finishes its support. I am enclosing the broken piece of wire which came out. Chassis GWN.30 mileage 2274.
