H4/FB8415. Re William Whiteley. 2015E. Contd.

We feel that you will not wish the car left
with a forward livot lean, but unless you can suggest
anything new as a cure, we do not know how we can deal
with the matter without making the car worse than it is at
present.

We note in a memo and report of yours
Wor {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} 25/T11215 re 2015E, ( which memo having been accidentally
to Bombay had only reached us to-day) that you refer to a
to a special Hseries type side steering tube with its stronger
springs is what we should have to cure these bad cases.

Will you kindly let us hear from you soon.
