| S/W. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst...from PN.{Mr Northey} Copy to Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} N. X6016 PN.{Mr Northey}4/WT17.11.32. Chassis GAU-14. Faulty Switchbox. In reply to your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.6/MA.16.11.32 surely a way can be found to avoid putting this car out of commission for a further day by having to send to you its switchbox to make the necessary alterations to the lock. Will you please let me know whether such alteration could not be made by N., after they have received the necessary instruction. Every one of our demonstration cars is used either by the Inspection Dept. or otherwise is engaged up to the hilt all the time. PN.{Mr Northey} [Stamp: RECEIVED] | ||
