| W/S - Hn.{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}21/KW.3.12.34. Stabilising Bumpers. Hn{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}15/I/1.12.34. I am hoping to get a model bumper bar from Wilmot-Breeden's by the end of the week and when we have tested this out we can give it a reference number and it can be available for a model. The trouble so far has been that we have made some of the parts and Wilmot-Breeden's the others, and we want them to take over the whole job. A modification will be required to the starting handle which is being settled at the same time. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
