196/197 weight?

[fishwomp]

The wikipedia entries for 196 and 197 are curiously missing their weight (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_196 and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_197).

Class 195 page shows Axle load - so not too hard to work it out, whereas most other rolling stock is carriage weight.

Is this some sort of state secret, or are they just embarrassed when they roll onto the scales..!?

I don't know what they weigh but the weight is displayed on the vehicle end data panel if you're ever stood next to one.

I suspect its that no one has bothered to upload properly cited data to Wikipedia.

The figures certainly appear in the latest Platform 5 combined.
