| 306 Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /AFM. {Anthony F. Martindale} from Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 3/R.13.4.38. Depots have complained that the hand-brake notches on the P.III are too coarse. They have asked us to provide finer notches. They have also complained that when a P.III is stopped on a hill, with a full complement of passengers, and the hand-brake is applied, the car is likely to run away when the passengers get out, and, in fact, this has happened on more than one occasion. We should like a report on this. Depots are also complaining about servo squeaks on the P.III. Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
