The thing is when it comes to wear the way railways have been built in this country has mainly been on the cheap. except for the biggest lines. In Europe and the US governments have ordered railways and so given funding.
Here little groups of quite rich people went mad and tried to build as fast as possible for the least money.
Where the quad-art sets come into play- they were used widely in East Anglia because it is flat with few earth works and structures.
On the other hand pacers don't do much to help so on smaller vehicles it could be useful.
