Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Swd1.7/JH.23.11.36.

No.30 Bed.

We asked in the memo. HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Swd1.6/JH.9.3.36. for the (2800 DP x 3) dynamometer to be replaced by a DP x 4 2400) in the above test house.

This has not yet been attended to in spite of the fact that we returned a (2400 DP x 4) brake for overhaul (B.10275) Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/swdl.{Len H. Swindell}24/JH.4.8.36. and which can be used for the job.

Will you please see that the latter brake when overhauled be fitted in No.30.

Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/L.H.Swindall.
