How much will these Sth Korean trains cost in the end? They dont fit The Blue Mtns line so platforms need widening and walls trimmed. But also the transformers use too much electricity and wont work so all need to be changed when they get here, at what cost? Would have been cheaper to have them made here after all I suspect.
they don;t fit the Blue Mountains because they are not designed to go up there…..simple
