@lhrjc More than likey the traction motors or the generator suffered a flash over.
Massive electrical arch inside the gene or traction motor frying either or both.
Locomotives have been writted off in the event of a generator flash over, as the electrical arch sends a surge through the rest of the locos electrical systems frying the entire thing.
Where as a traction motor flash over is isolated to the traction motor.

Driving Van Trailer - basically it looks like a mk3 coach chassis with a class 91 body shell on it, and is used for carrying of parcels on that train. it goes at one end, and an electric loco, (class 86, 87, 90 or 91) goes on the other end
-
The buffered version HSTs a have draw hook coupling system so any loco can couple up to it.

A train is no place to play a didgeridoo. How antisocial
-
ill find the tosser here is you!
-
no its just that drivers want MTU so they brake them =(
-
ahh right, kk thanks for the help (Y)
-
Not 100% sure but I think it's for controlling a locomotive from the other end of the train so they don't need to uncouple it and run it round to the other end when departing.
-
oh right ok thank you, so whats a DVT? :P
-
Eight of the power cars had the buffers fitted when they were converted into DVTs in 1988, they were converted back but no one thought to take the buffers off.
I'm just wondering how they managed to push a HST, does it actually couple to anything?

HSTs are Diesel Electric so no gearbox is involved, the power is fed to the wheels using a generator and traction motors

ah ok thanks. I'm not sure what happened to be honest but the wheels couldn't turn so something major must have gone wrong!
