| Ref: N.B (S.T.B IV.XX) (441) - S.R 107th Meeting Jan 3rd.12. Re Steering Wobbles. Mr Barrington informed the Committee that Mr Johnson had written to him asking whether we were not getting too particular in our requirements and for figures referring to the mount our tyres were out of balance. He had interviewed Mr Platford, who had promised to make tests in order to obtain these figures. Mr Platford informed the Committee that he had not yet made these tests, but would do so as soon as possible. Mr Nadin informed the Committee that we had provided "S" with figures of this description, but as these had been obtained in the early part of 1911, he thought it advisable to make further tests. The Committee agreed to this procedure. XU57 | ||
