Dunlop Detachable Wheels.

Mr. Barrington . 29/10/12.

[STAMP: RECEIVED A 30 NOV 1912]

Attached is copy of letter written
to Mr. Egan of the Dunlop Co. on the
24th inst. CJ10/D241012.

Mr. Egan replied that we ought not
to have had to tighten the wheels if
they were properly fitted in the first
place.

Mr.Egan also said that he would be
glad to let us have a set of wheels to
fit to one of our heavy cars if we
would let him know the size of wheel
required. Please take this up with
the Dunlop Co. and arrange for the wheels
to be fitted.

Also do as Mr. Royce suggests in the
attached memo FHR3/H251012. that is to say
order Dunlop detachable wheels for several
of our heaviest cars.

C. J.{Mr Johnson W.M.}
