| BY/RD. 86099. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.8/KW.9.3.34. R.R. SCHEME 481 DYNAMO. With regard to our request for a further Dynamo of the above type, it has now been decided to build altogether 6 sets of Dynamos, putting one or two on London Trials 20/25 Chassis, and one on Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}'s car. We are not proposing to standardise this scheme on chassis until we have completely carried out extensive Bench Tests and Chassis Tests. Will you therefore please instruct to be built up, 4 more sets of parts to complete 4 more Dynamos, making up the 6 sets including the 2 now already made. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
