[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Tulyar15 I wonder what engine the replacement for our diesel HST (HST2) will use? Will it be the Paxman VP185 or the MTU one being tried out by Gt. Western. The Aussies have already re-engined their XPT's (an HST clone built down under but with British made components) with VP185's. If these power HST there's a fighting chance we might see a revival of the British rolling stock industry. Iarnrod Eireann have even indicated they might buy a few HST2;s. [/quote] I just hope it has proper power cars like the current one, rather than underfloor engines. Part of the reason the HST is a finer train than the "replacement" Voyagers et al is that having seperate power cars means little or no noise and vibration in the passenger areas.
