E.13/HP.1.8.33.

Contract T.555. Tank Engines.

Replying to your memo D/L.1/B.31.7.33, we can see no objection to proceeding with the experiments of assembling and testing two sets of plug screens and ignition wires on Tank Engines, the work on which had been suspended at W.O. request.

We should be glad if you would confirm that the W.O. do not also wish to proceed with the small modifications proposed in their letter of 26/5/33, copy of which we attached.

E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
