| 6653 Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Wst.14/JH. 16th June, 1937. Messrs. Joseph Lucas Ltd., Great King Street, Birmingham.19. For the attention of W.E.Robinson. Dear Sirs, Whilst at your works yesterday Mr. Taylor asked me for a record of our experimental tests on the FS{F. Steele}22/N Foot switch. We now attach herewith a record of these tests for your information. It will be noted from these tests that the new switch contacts to drawing ENS.1101 are satisfactory, but we still get trouble due to the body working loose, and we should be glad to know what steps you ppopose taking to overcome this trouble. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
