Even the queen rarely used the royal train as she often travelled on standard services with a full carriage being booked out.

The royal train is of little use for anything other than what it was adapted to as it can accommodate very people.

I suspect one or two coaches may end up at the National Railway Museum (probably the two state coaches) and the rest will be scrapped......unless Jeremy Hoskins (owns LSL and has a hell of a heritage fleet) fancies a loco hauled private train to go with his converted 121 (55022) bubble car gin palace chairman's train

We haven't made a Jag car for eight months, the new ones are on the proto line at the moment

Not defending them, but they stopped building cars, so of course new car sales are going to fall off a cliff

Well, you can prove anything with facts these days...

So i checked with a cuppe mates if mine, including an opel mechanic, and most likely its the torque converter, and posebly a burned cluch pack or 3 so eighter its swapping the gearbox and the torque converter, or its rebuilding the one i have, wich is easier said than done

Very nice, very economical and very quick 

Does the front fans run when the Aircon is on?

Basically the front fans(s) run with AC on and the rear fan runs when the thermoswitches tell it to.

When it gets properly hot it will run all the fans.

AC trumps the colder thermoswitch and the hotter one overrides everything.

At least it's German

Joking aside, looks very smart

That looks very nice 👍
