| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} 4206 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}5/KW.23.2.35. Water Excluders. N.Sch.4370 has been issued, which clears up the last point on the water excluders; that is, the screening of the small hole beneath the brake camshaft. The scheme we require is the one marked for existing cars. Will you please make pieces to go with every set of water excluders and also three or four spare pieces to fit on the schemes which have already been applied to cars. We have had several enquiries from London as to when we shall be able to equip the Trials cars; we shall be glad therefore if you could give us a definite promise for 12 sets.
