no fault found, next time you are out and about, i suggest you take a look at the 2 ends of 220001, you will see that one of the ends does not have a dark yellow triangle patch on it where the virgin emblem used to be, this is because after someone took a dive in front of it at early, it did enough damage to it that the whole cab needed replacing

I was referring to class 43 power cars.

They generally need the lower valances and nose end doors renewing or sometines a local repair to the cab but i've not known one needing a full cab to be changed due to hitting a person.
