PHANTOM REAR SPRINGS. X. 7410
X. 8410

As requested by the Expl: Dept: we have gone
again into the question of providing a sliding pad for use
with existing rear springs, so avoiding the necessity of
increasing the stock of springs.

We send herewith N.sch. 2709 shewing what we
propose. It will be seen that we alter the bracket on the
axle, and the safety bracket; the former was altered in any
case, and the upper one we think is probably not of much
importance. As far as 12-EX is concerned we suggest that this
replaces N.sch. 2598.
