| R.R. 253A. 1-3000(F.V.Wp. Sp.{Mr Spinney}10).13.10.19 re Question of doing away with B position of Side Levers X 582 4.M.13. Ry1/G41213. J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} for R.{Sir Henry Royce} I have been looking into this matter and am of the same opinion as yourself, namely, that B and C positions are so close together (only varying about .625”) at the top of the lever that it seems to me unnecessary to have the B position at all.
