I realise that it would be large - i just don't think it would be large
enough to be a significant fraction of the cost of the whole seven-car

Wrong question: the right question is "is the cost of $plan more than the
cost of $otherplan".

They had a plan: shut the Jubilee down for a week. It worked.
We're arguing over implementation detail (albeit important
implementation detail).
