-4- Cont'd.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} It will be seen that the angle of precession with a free end B is twice that with a fixed end at B. We appreciate the serious nature of this trouble on the short wheelbase cars of the Senior Range, and will do all we can to discover any solution in order to avoid abandoning the split propellor shaft, and the flat rear floor. | ||
