lossof poweron eurostar trains

Post by mastermuddle »

You might not believe this but I can asure it happened. In early 1985 I was driving an HST to Taunton when I lost power on .the rear power car When I rang the marsh foreman he said they think snow is getting in the traction motors, see what happens when you come back yes sure enough it happend again so all the way to Paddington power on then off but we got there. Perhaps they do not get the wrong sort of snow where the Euro trains were built lol :D :oops: :roll[.
