Instead, the HS4000, despite its incredible technology that was leaps and bounds beyond BR's contemporary locomotive roster, as well as its sheer power, would lead a short and inauspicious life in the UK before being shipped to the Soviet Union, where its power unit was found to be more useful than the locomotive itself, thus resulting in this formidable machine being reduced to an engineless shell rotting in a yard outside Moscow.
