It will be interesting to see how well the engines are isolated from
the passenger area, compared to the bumpy Pacers or perhaps Class 150s
they'll be replacing. Having two smaller road-vehicle engines in
separate, self-contained power packs could actually make them quieter
than the DMUs.


Shame they didn't decide to put a couple of chevvy V8s underneath
