Yes it did a 100mph test run and supposedly without problems during or subsequently, as a result of which Tornado was 'passed' for 90mph. A later...
Experience yes, ability..... hmmm
That may well be, my question is but how short of motive power would WCR have to be before they approached LSL for one of theirs? and how...
If a Clan wasnt suitable for the Mallaig road then Tangers certainly isnt... looks like LSL have a black 5 and at a push a B1... ah, so.
The ones who truly want failure see that something is amiss and yet say nothing...
