Most rolling stock has an average lifespan of 40 years, although things don’t necessarily go to plan with certain trains going off lease or being scrapped early. Others are so reliable that I could see them living to 45 or even 50 years old. Taking into account all factors and possibilities, which passenger rolling stock in operation today do you think will be the last standing?
There isn’t enough room in the poll for every rolling stock family, so I have left out those which are most likely to be retired before the others.
