Huckerby}7.2.38. 26.G.VI CAR - UNDERSHEETS. Waller reports that when he fitted the latest type undersheets (sent out with car) to 26.G.VI, they fouled the front brake rod in the bottom of the slot provided and also the lower triangle levers on full bump. He was able to modify them to clear at these points. Will you please make the necessary modifications to ensure that these fouls do not recur on production or on the six cars which RHC.{R. H.
