Re New Light axle
Customer's No. X137
Herewith please find blue prints of G1862/3 & GP.12 showing the reinforcement of the new light axle Tubes & centre Gear box.
I have just received your note R10/B29393 from Mr Wormald, & as the new parts in hand cover all the points you call for I have had the tracings made to show you exactly how this light axle stands. I had started an arrange-ment to send to you but owing to losing one of my best man I had to let it stand over.
You will notice that I have put 3/8" Walls in tubes & increased the tail
