BJ15/H22/9/26 Confirming our conversation of yesterday, with reference to BY5/H13/9/26 and BY2/PB/9/26, it was agreed that we should adopt suggestion 'b' of the latter memo., namely, to bring in the new proposal on the 151st chassis in 'J' Series, in which case the scrap will be approximately £250 and the date at which we should bring in the improvement would be March 12th. I understood that this suggestion has no effect on front wheel wobbles and I am sending copy of this memo. to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} for him to consider whether he can agree to this suggestion and how it will affect the bodies for the chassis in question. BJ. | ||
