TWO RATE CHARGE SCHEME.

In connection with the change of dynamo on 22-EX, the switchbox and field resistance units on this car should also be modified to bring them up to present production standard. This involves altering the switchbox so as to give full output in the S & T position, and arranging the contacts so that the dynamo armature circuit breaks before the field circuit. The resistance unit should be replaced by a standard 23" unit.

We should be pleased if you will have this done.
