| 1015 To By/CRL.{C. R. Lisson} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}19/JH.9.8.39. With reference to your memo. from Dn. which we return herewith. We suggest that if possible the ordering of the remainder of the side shaft bearings should be held up until one of the two cars in France has been examined. If however it becomes necessary to order bearings to keep production going, then more of the same kind should be obtained. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
