EAC.14. INSTRUMENT BOARDS. X 7530

As EAC. 14. is going into production as a standard car we shall need an instrument board arrangement to suit the modified controls on the board.

We send herewith N. sch. 2543. shewing an arrangement of standard instruments mounted on a board to form a group. The K.S./telegauge is included in this as we hope this will be standardised. The red warning light is made to have a flange to match the controls.

The instrument board drawn is that for a straight line scuttle: when the scuttle is wider, as it is on standard cars, the switch can go into its normal place.

Would you kindly send us 3 extra prints.
