| Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} from Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} There are one or two complaints on the cars, which require attention and which might be dealt with by Allen, who is being kept on car work. These are as follows :- 1. The centre floor board is too weak in the rear of 3.B.50 and is bent after the centre propellor shaft joint. 2. The rear number plates break off the brackets far too easily. We shall have to get a better material than aluminium for this bracket. Actually, I think one will have to be designed in sheet metal.
