whats different?

[Blaine]

Colour (duh), different engine, load regulator setup. Look at the vid closely to see that a few side doors have been replaced too

Different engine??

Different engine??

 

They still have the old 645E3-Bs and IE have since upgraded their 071s to the newer E3-Cs. That's why today they sound different to each other even when just ticking over while idle.

good stuff there Railer - when did the engine upgrade take place - at the latest overhaul or earlier?
