XA II We are still without the standardisation sheet for the new side spare wheel carrier to part list D.51723 and N.Sch.2859. This scheme is of course a big improvement over the old single arm carrier, but we are not in a position to be able to order material in the absence of the standard-isation sheet. What chance is there of getting a standardisation sheet signed as if there is any difficulty about this it would mean we shall have to go to the old side wheel carrier whether we like it or not. This matter is obviously very urgent. We want now double arm carrier BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} By | ||
