| S/W EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer} COPY. X3461. C1/C1.3.20. The new shock absorbers affect the design of the luggage grid brackets, and as Barkers have had to alter the grid brackets on two or three cars, they would like the new shock absorbers fitted to chassis Nos:- 71-CW 24-TW 36-LW 32-PP at once, before they proceed with the mounting. Will you please therefore send the necessary material immediately for the Derby men to fit. Do I understand that it has definitely been decided to fit shock absorbers to all the cars that have been issued ? C. | ||
