    GBRf to buy Colas 47s

    Barriers are not allowed on most depots now due to the running around required, Ramsgate being an example. This is why ROG moved on from them.

    GBRf to buy Colas 47s

    Yes correct, I suspect you can go to the moon on your old knackered push bike if you had the money, however my point is you can't on cost grounds and nothing to do with the wibble being posted on here.

    GBRf to buy Colas 47s

    The 92's are having a new drag box fitted for the 15 year contract, so you will get a return on the massive investment. Fitting the same on a 47 to move a few units will not pay, fitting a unit the same as the ROG 37's will. However that needs an ex BR loco height drag box.

    Wrong, the drag box is at the wrong hight on newer Loco's. Don't know how else to tell you fella.

    You can't fit Delner couplings to newer stock, only BR loco's with a standard hight drag box. And no it's not getting converted to a 57.
