Replying to C.1/C.7.11.35, we have no use for the wheels off this car on our Experimental work. Presumably you cannot use them on your car in place of the smaller wheels. If you have no use for them in London, they could be sent up here and used by the Test Dept. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
