| To By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. toDa. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.2/JH.11.1.38. 440 In view of the fact that the details for shutter mounting on Bentley III radiator are urgently required, will you please detail this to PD.79 as indicated in Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std.4/MH.{M. Huckerby}6.1.38. Messrs. Marstons prefer this scheme and as they probably will make the grille we think this scheme should be used. We are still awaiting Productions choice of schemes, but if this differs from Messrs. Marstons, we can decide later whether to modify the shutter/mounting. PD.79 scheme should be instructed for the first B.III car. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Std. | ||
