| W/S. C. From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson} c. to PN.{Mr Northey} 87/20. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson}4/W.25.10.30. 26-EX. This car is definitely undersprung for four passengers and luggage. Unfortunately the body weight came out three cwt. more than anticipated, and we had no time to get other springs. We have the correct springs here now. If experience has shewn that 26-EX. is too lightly sprung for the purpose of demonstration, we can send these springs to Cricklewood.
