| 1345 Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}14/ML.4.3.40. 1.B.50 is at the present moment a derelict car. If we got Park Wards to put on an open lorry body, it would be exceedingly useful for transporting parts between the Clan Foundry and the Factory and at the same time we could get mileage on rationalised pieces which will fit into this frame. We shall be glad to know if you agree to getting Park Wards to make the body. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
