| x206 To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale}10/JH. 20.2.36. Bentley Rolling Toggles & Steel Shoes. We have decided to fit these to 1-B-IV, instead of B-23-AE, and put the aluminium drums on the latter car. We are using 1-B-IV for axle strength tests at the moment, but when we have completed these we would like the rolling toggles fitted. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale} | ||
