EU07 into an EP08

[Christophe]

Hello,

I had some fun this morning looking at the trains on the Warsaw-Katowice line. Besides the Pendolino, there is still one locomotive missing that can run a bit faster in front of the IC trains. Since an EP09 would be a new development and the EU/EP07 with its vMax of 125km/h is quite slow, I did some research and saw that the EP08 is a EU07 with a different gearbox and bearings.

Would it not be possible to add the EP08? Or are there other differences apart from the " transmission technology"?
