$550,000,000 Spent on trains that don't fit in tunnels.

Today, coming back from TAFE (college) I saw the new trains from QR (Queensland Railway).

So I took some pics of it with my PSP and when I got home, I couldn't help it but find more information about them.

And this is one of the first links that I found. The news website said that these trains don't fit in some of Brisbane's tunnels.. What a shame...
Read the newslink because it covers one more funny fact.

I'm not asking for lame comments, i'm just having a go at the fact that they don't fit.

Oh. its just the air conditioners that dont fit, i thought it was like the whole body of the train... in that case it would need a whole new build. in this case its just some adjusting.

15 more years! 15 more years!

On the second thumbnail link, the air-conditioning unit is 1cm bigger than it should be.
lame engineering!

edit: that would suck majorly if the body didn't fit

I'm sure a magic shifter will fix the whole thing.

GG QLD, another victory for you!
