| - 4 - passed the Experimental Dept. satisfactorily. The latter at the moment have an open mind on the issue but are rather inclined to think that the buffer coming in earlier is likely to make the riding somewhat uncomfortable. If this were the case, of course the scheme would have to be amended before it can be made standard. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
