Hi

I was asking around about the going rate for a scrapline class 37 or 56. To my astonishment a scrapline condition class 56 would set you back £30,000!

Amazing to think just 6 years ago a recently withdrawn class 37 or 47 would only set you back £3,000 - £4,000.

Thanks to the industrial revolution occuring in India and China, I worked out a full HST set (2 power cars, 8 coaches plus transportation costs) would cost £205,000 in accordance with todays scrap price index.

With this in mind, is it likely a full HST set will be preserved outside the national collection?
