S/W (Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}) X8770 Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}/EBN29.4.25 Re. 9-PK I had your telegram at W.W. on Monday saying that 9-PK would leave Derby that day, so I have come here to-day hoping to supervise the body being mounted; but the chassis has not arrived. We wired you to this effect this afternoon, and think possibly that you sent the chassis by rail. Perhaps you will let me know by wire to-morrow morning whether this has happened, because then we can look for it this end. Ev.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} | ||
