Do you think that Vivarail might be interested in them? Or do we need to

It took enough work to get the D stock up to mainline crash worthiness. They'd
probably have to graft half a tank onto the front of the DLR stock to manage

Of course it does beg the question of why tube stock has such poor crash
resistence especially given that surface stock particularly on the met line
works at speeds little different from outer urban mainline services.
