Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} To Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re Miles 10,000/Test on 20/25 with smaller wheels. Thanks for Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}25/KW.15.3.35. I am glad to note really that you can make good use of 21-G-IV for this test as GAE-20 is a very saleable car which can quickly be disposed of. I should be glad if you would let me know as soon as you yourself know about what date you expect 21-G-IV to be able to get away for its test. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
