-2- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}2/R.27.5.38. If the worst comes to the worst and the car is a complete failure, all the pieces, other than those enumerated, will be directly useable on a B.50 car. If the car is a success there is no reason, except in so far as is dictated by policy, why it should not be put into production at the same time as B.50. Scheme drawings are in existence to show that no accommodation available on the present Wraith chassis will be sacrificed on the proposed replacement car. Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
