| N3C/B31012. Mr Bailey Mr Wormald Mr Platford Mr Herrington Mr Hives X/40 3-10-12 Mr Johnson decided this afternoon that we must work as near as possible to Mr Royce's suggestions re the rear axle. We must, therefore, remove the 5/16" bolts which are at the present time fitted in a number of cars and replace them by 3/8" bolts. [Signature] | ||
