    Hi,

    Not much I would say as there seems to be everything needed available as aftermarket parts anyway.

    I would also think that given time the venerable old two smoke will slowly fade away as the vessels/vehicles they serve present un economical proposition to accomplish a big job such as to rebuild an engine not to mention the possible future environmental regulations that will see all of us using pedal powered gensets withing 12 miles of the coast.

    The Series 60 on the other hand will no doubt continue to be served by the Tognum operation for a while yet.
