X 7090 RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}3/T19.4.29. Will you please prepare sufficient 45° cams and levers G.76811 1.375" long to equip all the cars. We think it would be better if we did not scrap any of the cams and levers at present on the cars, because the whole question is still unsettled since we changed the brake lining.
