"Bullet train" ... could be explained ... U(upper class) + L(abbreviation for line) + Lett (=Latvian) all conatined within BRAIN(mind).

56a. End in sight, dear old fruit! (7)

This could be ... T (end letter of 'sight') + ANGEL ('dear', term of endearment) + O (abbreviation for 'old') making, as you have, TANGELO.

Hi Jonny, Diane.
12d = Shyster.

I should have added S(son)hyster(ectomy)

Thanks Trevor and Jonny brain evenually kicked in and I managed to complete it.

Many thanks for all your replies.
The last ones I am unsure of are 33A- Flip Over Lid?
and 50A- Rigatoni?
Thank you in anticipation...
Rob

I think it is "Flip ONES Lid". IE Lose ones temper, (also, push the pedal on a pedal bin and its lid flips open).
50a. fix = rig(fix a fight). A Lot = A ton.
