Martindale}18/M.2.237. 34 EX. As this car may have to do some severe braking on its forthcoming test it is necessary to reline the rear brakes as these are more than half worn out. The front brakes are worn very little and need not be relined. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/AFM.{Anthony F. Martindale} 16 | ||
