Please receive herewith the following scheme :- F.CD.450 Mod. to Top Triangle lever buffer mounting and buffer. The above scheme has been produced in order to simplify the machining of the upper triangle levers, where the rebound buffer is fixed. We have taken advantage of this modification to fit larger rubber buffers of the Humber type. These rubbers should assist in curing some of the riding complaints suggested by Cx.{Major Len W.
