g27. B.50. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies}16/JH.3.5.38. Will you please have the rear end of the frame boxed in as shown in FOD.633 to give additional strength for jacking purposes. This is to the same scheme as the new frames, but it will not, of course, be possible to deepen the side member. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/FD.{Frank Dodd - Bodies} | ||
