Good evening all,
A few weeks ago me and few friends were discussing the IEP project and I thought of the idea of using the current Class 43 powercars but fitting them with transformer + pantograph and connect it up to the existing traction motors to make them an electro-diesel train. This will probably save a hell of alot of money in buying new trains completely, and will keep the timeless HST design around.
Tell me what you think.
