To EFC. from R.{Sir Henry Royce} Copy to CJ. " " BN.{W.O. Bentley / Mr Barrington} ORIGINAL X 3533 RE 40/50 H.P. CHASSIS - ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT. When we are fitting the R.R. distributing board and separate switches on the instrument board, it will be advisable to make this equipment all alike throughout the whole remaining series of 40/50 H.P. cars. I think we should not make another change later on. You will notice in the memo sent you yesterday, the matter is clearing up to a much simpler and safer arrangement than we have heretofore had when we have only arranged part of the work.
