| Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AFM. {Anthony F. Martindale} 641 BY.13/G.17.12.38. WRAITH - RE: SERVO FRICTION MATERIAL GW.2148. Will you kindly note that 57 of the above parts have been delivered in RAD.13 (S.5775) material. I think it was desired to fit these parts at once in place of the present type of material to avoid servo squeaks. Will Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AFM. {Anthony F. Martindale} kindly get in touch with LA. {L. A. Archer} and arrange to have the material used to the best advantage, i.e. by fitting to cars ready for despatch, if it is agreed that this was the intention originally, as I believe it was. BY. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
