I think the problem is brake force - a light engine, though could hit much higher speeds I don't believe would be able to stop in the required distance.

Perhaps it could be used for railtours sometimes.

Just watched the video in the first post, and all I could say for a few minutes was "Wow!" 
It's been absolutely ages since I last saw an HST with a Valenta in it (30th January 2010), and I couldn't stop myself having a fair bit of a flail with the volume on maximum! I'd forgotten how much I missed that sound, but just hearing it again today brought back plenty of memories
Fantastic news for 125 Group that things have got this far, only a matter of time before we see and hear an HST making a proper noise once again on the Western!
