| 1097 To G/WFH. from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/SW.14.2.41. In replying to your memo reference G/WFH/ABF.62/JE.12.2.41. The work done on the Vauxhall, was for my private account. I have written to Vauxhall's and told them that the axle is not satisfactory. So I am not prepared to pay the account until the axle has been put right. Is it necessary for an advice note for this axle, since it was taken to Vauxhall's by road when R.R. representatives were visiting Luton on other business. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
