[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] I would think Talgo's best interests would be served if they simply bought those sets from Wisconsin, as there does not appear to be a North American buyer at hand. If those trains remain in the hands of Wisconsin, they will simply be trotted pout for a "show trial" as "monuments to waste".. Talgo will in the process become guilty by association, and could forget about any future business in North America. If there are photo ops of the equipment being loaded aboard a vessel as deck cargo at Milwaukee (give the local longshoremen the work), at least Talgo would be making the best of a bad situation. This is not to say it is a case of faulty designed equipment (read like the Amtrak SDP-40F and E-60 locomotives of thirty years ago), but rather equipment ordered not suited for the intended route and changing political breezes. As for them seeing revenue service in Spain; well the government is broke and by adjunct, so is RENFE. [/QB][/QUOTE]
