    CT 170 on Cambrian Line?

    The main problem will be that ERTMS takes alot of power to run on the trains & no unit is built with extra horse power that is not used, the 158's were going to have a small alternator fitted just for ERTMS but it never happened, so any unit will be slighty below par

    they never fixed the radio's, they banned us from taking them on the Cambrian in the end

    CT 170 on Cambrian Line?

    we had a 170 booked on the 09.30 ish to Aber but it didn't last long as the NRN radio's wouldn't work with the RETB correctly, use to get hacked off writing RETB tickets all the time !
