X6129 Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} C.W. for. H/Gst.{G. S. Townsend} Fa. Hy.{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} ---------------- E.S/HR/30.3.32. --------------- Chassis Lighting Switches. In reply to your memo 2G31/E.24.3.32, there is no intention of putting the lighting switch on top of the steering column. I think the report to which you refer is the result of some confusion due to the dimming switch being on the column. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
