And XPT is based on BR's HST. "Variety" is somewhat lacking in our
railway rollingstocks. I'm not asking for anything like "Thalys" or
"ICE", I'm just a little bit of changes, or modular style trains that
are introducing into UK's rail system lately. Recently people from EDI
said that modern/stylish looking trains not just prevent vadalism, they
also attract new patrons evidence such as QR's tilt train.


Hopefully there will be something surprising in the interior of the
train. (TVs ?)
