| S/W To Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} from Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} re 6-B-IV. Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}17/E21.4.37 Copy to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 200 I see from a report of the 15th that the car suffered from a broken piston. I shall be interested to hear in due course what is considered to be the cause of this. So far as I can see from the specification of points being tested on this car, there is nothing special about the pistons. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} | ||
