Re spanner for rear wheel ball cap. X.311

Mr Haldenby 7-4-13

We have to-day instructed Mr Matthews to make one spanner R.128 for rear wheel ball cap. 'It is suggested that such a spanner be supplied with each car in a bag marked - "FOR USE WHEN OVERHAULING. NEED NOT BE CARRIED ON THE CAR".

The present one is to be sent to Mr Royce with chassis 2301 with a note asking his opinion as to whether we should supply this design or some other design of spanner for removing this cap.
