| Re Card Clips on Works Material Boxes. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Mcr3/L7715. 7.7.15. When we visited the Midland Railway Works we noticed that the boxes and trays for holding work that was being produced on the machines were each provided with a little steel clip for holding the production card, which you thought might be worth copying. These clips were ½" wide by 2" long and retained by two little brass nails, their shape being as shewn in the sketch below. If you care to order any of these up you might forward this sheet to the Order Office. Mcr. | ||
