They are going to need more than a new nose cone to make them look sleek and
modern. A good case in point is QR's EMU01 & EMU04. I travelled on EMU01
(both trains have new front ends) while in Brisbane recently and while the
outside looks good front on, the rest of the train is still first series
stuff. I'm sure someone has a URL with this train on it until I scan my
Brisbane pics...
