RE DYNAMO AND SWITCHBOARD.

X.295
X.1815

Do as you suggest about the switchboard for Smith dynamo. Use any cutout you can fit and if that will fit is not satisfactory, make one after the R.R. design. If we can make something that will perform its duty better than the present ones (which I understand are either big and ugly or unsatisfactory) it will justify our making it and although we may not get any profit from its manufacture, it should help the standing charges.

R.{Sir Henry Royce}
