WOR{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}18/T17814. X1083 RE STANDARDISATION OF DOUBLE SHUTTERED BONNETS FOR STANDARD CARS. ------------------------------------------ E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} 17/1/14. Re - E3/G31714. I am in agreement with this standardisation because of its efficiency. I should much prefer to see bonnets without any shutters from appearance point of view, but I think, taking all into consideration, it is the best thing to do; therefore I agree. | ||
