| 1113. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GWH{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}/IMW.{Ivan M. Waller - Head of Chateauroux} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} (Chateauroux) Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GWH{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}8/R.14.4.37. We have sent you a telegram to-day to concentrate on the mileage of 35-EX and 6.B.IV. We want to get these two cars finished with and 3.B.IV was only intended as a stand by until such time as the above cars were finished with. I, therefore, wrote to Sr. asking him to again run 3.B.IV., but in case anything goes wrong to put the car on one side and inform you. This is so that you can personally get at the trouble. Will you, therefore, let Sr. have 3.B.IV. I have received the reports of the 8th which had once more been delayed in the post. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} | ||
