| 263 S/W. c. to Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} CxIO/KW12.4.38. B-23-AE. I understand from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} that this car has been ready for you to take over for some days now. We are anxious to try and sell it and have a customer interested. I have been hoping to tell him how long we shall want the car before he could have it, but until you get it into your possession and are able to check it over I suppose you cannot say. Will you please, therefore, get hold of the car forthwith, so as to be able to advise me how long you will require it for repairs to make it ready for resale. Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} | ||
