| To H.H.C. LN60 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}9/KW.17.7.35. B-5 Unit. Further to Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/KW.15.7.35. with regard to preparing this unit for 2-B-IV chassis, Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} has asked you to remove the stiffened clutch cover and replace it with the original one. We should like to take the opportunity, whilst we still have this chassis, of trying out the lightened fingers and cartridges to N.Sch.4517. Will you therefore please fit a set of these to this engine. Those removed from C-14 unit will do. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
