509 posts 		I have 1E03 (a 9-car HST) trundling up the main line between Newcastle and Durham. It refuses to go any faster than 30mph. All of its specs seem to be in order (Max speed: 125mph, Speed class: HST, Freight speeds: unticked) and it isn’t running with a loss of power. Any ideas on how I can speed it up a bit?

Thanks

Mark (Gwasanaethau).

NB: There appears to be a glitch in the screenshot where the Train List’s titlebar should be. This only appears in the screenshot.

Just checked through the incident notes to be sure, and no he’s not. Gonna take him (literally) all day to get to London at that rate!

I just ran your save and the train in question does seem to pick up speed after a short while, which would suggest that there is nothing wrong with the train
