We are sending you some Bendix brake parts. We admit that the shoe construction does not please us very much but there may be something in the general construction which will be of interest to you. As soon as you have examined the parts will you please send them direct to Mr. Herbert Clark of the Bendix-Perrot Brake Co. who has been good enough to loan them to us. We are still trying to get a rigid type of pressed steel brake shoe which we can submit to you for your examination. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
