I think it would be a case of putting your best foot forward and providing
long distance rolling stock of a very comfortable nature in this instance.
I would imagine that it might be hard to find a sprinter spare for the
job,so it looks like an N set with J,K,D3,Y,or F as I think the T is 17.3t
and I don't know what the P would be.
Oily J would be my preference,but perhaps an LPG conversion could be picked
up cheap in the Trading Post<vbg!>
He's dreaming :-)
