According to Wikipedia, one of the trailers has the pantograph while
the other has the compressor, so I wouldn't have thought that a 3-car
was possible.


Maybe. Wikipaedia says only the TOSL has a compressor. That doesn't seem
right. I thought two compressors were mandatory these days. Roland
suggested


I hadn't noticed the "single compressor" issue when I wrote that.

elsewhere that the TOSL (with the disabled loo) was detachable though we
couldn't think why it might be done.


My question remains whether a single compressor is acceptable these days.
