| To HFS. from Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AFM. {Anthony F. Martindale} c. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /wym. {G. Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager} 8 606. Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AFM. {Anthony F. Martindale} 6/MH. {M. Huckerby} 4.5.38. 27.G.VI - BRAKES. This car ought to have standard brakes and as it is having part of the rear axle of 26.G.VI fitted we think it should have the whole of the rear brake gear. This will leave us with 27's axle for 26. Will you please remove the present shoes from 27.G.VI and fit 26.G.VI's shoes and linings to it. We can fix up the front brakes of 26.G.VI later.
