| To FHC/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} Smith. From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} x7941d. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}6/W.21.10.30. 24-EX. CAR. We require the slipper wheel replacing on this car with the standard setting. We require the engine to be single point mounted at the front, this single point mounting to be combined if possible with the tube which permits the timing case to be removed from the engine. For the purpose of test we could dispense with the undersheets to begin with. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
