Referring to Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}5/M/13.7.28. giving the new position desired for G.2.B. Series - and BY/Cgh{W Clough}3/G17.7.28. - we thought it probably unnecessary to have a new set of brackets suggested to give the above positions, because they are being fitted up in this position on a car - No. 29.CL. On further consideration, however, we think we had better have a pair of brackets because on that car they are going to be on Barker Dippers and we would like to see what shape the ordinary lamp brackets would take in order to give this position. Please, therefore, let us have a pair of brackets as soon as possible, bearing in mind the requisite clearance at the back for use of the RB.{R. Bowen}70 . lamps. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
