| 6103 W/P - Sr/VA. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R. Childs}7/JH.11.1.39. Some time ago you were kind enough to send us particulars of a dynamo test rig as installed at Rue Gide. We wish to obtain a similar test rig but so far the quotations of English firms are considerably higher than your price of 5200 frs. Will you please supply us with the makers address so that we can send out enquiries for a quotation covering delivery to the Works at Derby. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R. Childs} | ||
