Valve Gear Rig.

We shall be ready to hand No.20. bed over to the millwrights for building up the above rig in about a weeks time.

An engine unit B.14 is being allocated to the job, and should be ready less crankshaft cam rods and pistons by Tuesday morning. We should be glad therefore if you would have the rig assembled as far as possible, so that when the millwrights are ready for lining up there may be no unnecessary delay.
