Would you kindly prepare, in accordance with Mr. Royce's wishes, a scheme for converting the above cars to water heated throttles, and cancelling the exhaust butterfly valve. It is desired that this should be sent to WW. as soon as possible. In the meantime we are considering what should be done with EAC. chassis.
