Re: Central Change. -------------------- With reference to your memo BY/Mtn.1/N.21.11.38, I am forwarding to you the blueprints of the central change that was fitted at K.{Mr Kilner} The main blueprint shows the layout, the smaller blueprints are of the parts not R.R. and which were made here. The change speed lever which you remember was queried, can be obtained from the Repair Dept. We have not included the floorboard. These have of course to be altered to suit. If there are any queries you want clearing up, will you telephone or write to Donavon, who has had the designing of the job. GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} | ||
