Can't the Mk4 coaches be retrofitted with tilt and used where the gauge
permits?
GNER's 225s could be replaced with the electric HST2 when the time
comes but use the current coaches until new ones are developed.
Similarly, can't the current coaches from the HSTs be used with a new
diesel HST2 - Mk3 coaches are popular with a lot of people!
