| ORIGINAL. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} C. to S.G. WGR. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} P. 2. DIAMOND ENGINE MOUNTING. x7005 Regarding the diamond mounting for P. 2. we have already sent you the torque carrying feet fitted with soft diabolo rubbers. We now attach a blueprint of LeC. 2911. shewing the cross tube and pivot mounting for the front of the engine. I have been very much delayed on this work, and in consequence the sch. is not finished. The blueprint however gives you most of the information, and the remainder will be sent as early as possible after the Whitsun holiday.
