Flat wheels is quite hard to fix. First of course there needs to
be a newly forged set of wheel component, then they have to take
the wheelset out of the bogie, take out the wheels from the axle
and fit new wheels in.
Apparently because our bogies have motors mounted in the WN
Drive configuration so its easier somehow to remove.
Wheels can be reconditioned (made completely circular again) but
that will be some cost.
The series 0 (C151) motors are already one of the best for its
class. Chopper control 135 kW and 3.6 km/h/s acceleration, very
hard to find. Plus 210 tons of deadweight.
O, so series what is the best in terms of performance?
