- 2 - 15,000 mile Cars. If you can get Paris to carry out the work on 6B4 while you are running the PhIII it would help us a lot. We have got 3B4 ready to come out and, even if you spend all your time running mileage it will still be 4 - 5 weeks before you are ready for it. We shall also have another engine unit ready in ten days time which we may put in one of S.R's cars to get some running on these bearings. I have arranged for Evan's Chassé to come out to France as soon as possible. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
