| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} r6065 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. S/JH. 29.2.36. Rev-Counter on Car 3-B-IV. The drive between engine and dynamo on the above car has been altered, resulting in the dynamo now running at 1 1/4 times engine speed, and the rev-counter indications being all wrong. As a simple remedy, we propose fitting a new rev-counter which has been adjusted to correct this error. We should be pleased if you will have this instrument fitted to the above car.
