Mr Nadin 28/10/11 RE " SLUGGARD " CAR. I find on looking through the minutes dealing with this matter that no mention is made of inverted type springing as a difference between this car and standard. Can you please arrange for a further report to be put through so that in giving instructions there will be no confusion as regards type of springing which is to be adopted in cases of orders coming through for similar cars to the " Sluggard " This point was overlooked I am afraid [crossed out] when minutes were made out. E.P. [Stamp: RECEIVED 28 OCT 1911] [Handwritten: 188x] This sheet must be filed with the correspondence to which it refers. | ||
