The 455 retractioning project is now complete! Saw 455 913 at Kingston today and it now has Vossloh traction motors. Wonder if the rest will now have to return for mods to stop them exploding.
Just a technical point, the traction motors are from TSA (Traktionssysteme Austria) with Vossloh supplying the traction package and design, and they manage the overall conversion project. Same with the 321 conversion. AFAIK Vossloh don't have a capability to manufacture motors, they always buy in.
