MODIFIED SPRINGING.
------------------

One point which of course will have to be attended to when the springs are modified is that the axle buffer clearance will have to be adjusted on 47-AU. by removing the packing.

Possibly this has already been done in order to try and avoid bumping on the buffers. If it has not been done, it is necessary for it to be carried out when the springs are modified.
