Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}3/28.8.28. RE. 'SS{S. Smith}' PEDALS. X.7470 X.7430 On N.sch.2531 and 2543 we shewed the particulars of the 'B' type pedals. We send herewith N.sch.2671 shewing the pedals for D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} and E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} type steering modelled on the lines of those for B. type and using many of the pieces. It will be understood that B. type steering is cancelled. We should be glad if Derby would set out the C. type pedals, which only differ from those for D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} and E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} type steering in the angle and position of the pedal plate in each case.
