1204. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}13/R.{Sir Henry Royce} 17th June, 1937. R.A. Railton, Esq., 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, | ||
