1.B.50.

When the engine has been removed from this car will you please refit the thick side plates to the front of the frame, and send it in to the Garage to be twisted. After twisting the side plates will be removed and we shall require the gussets welding to the side members as on 9.B.V. Then we shall repeat the twisting operation, and return the car to the Shop to be rebuilt.
