    My understanding is that British India line along with Galatea, royal Scot and 44932 are all vacuume braked meaning that they can’t haul air braked coaches unless they have a diesel behind to do the braking. Carnforth’s set of vacuume braked coaches can’t be used on rail tours because there is a problem with the central door locking system but they can be used for private charters. The next appearance for British India line will be for the Greatest Gathering in August and it will also move there via the mainline. Hope that answered your question.
