Messrs. Thompson & Taylor (Brooklands) Ltd.,
Brooklands Track,
Weybridge, SURREY.

Dear Railton,

I am very anxious to get hold of an induction pipe and carburetter from the latest Terraplane for examination.

The one in which I am interested is the Duplex Carburetter on the six-cylinder. I do not know whether you have any six-cylinders through your hands, but if not, could you tell me where I could obtain one of these induction systems on loan?

Yours sincerely,
