Online 		Hi
The train type "465/466 4+4+2" has max. speed of 76mph whereas the rest of the class have 75mph max. Is this a typo?

Thanks
Jamie

Online 		Same question as for the 2009 timetable – no random shunts around Slade Green and Hoo Junction?
Two million people attempt to use Birmingham's magnificent rail network every year, with just over a million of them managing to get further than Smethwick.

675 posts 		1Q61 0550 Hither Green - Hither Green infrastructure monitoring train is incorrectly shown to be a UTU. UTU's run as 3Qxx not 1Qxx, transit max speed 75mph, and record at 30mph, whereas 1Q61 is shown as max speed 90mph. This will be a PLPR or other high speed track recording train. And above all else, no train planner considering a long railway career will plan a UTU to be recording around the North Kent suburban routes during the day, given the aforementioned max recording speed.

So if I'm understanding correctly, the issue is the train category says "NWR (1/5) Electro Diesel (73+UTU Mk1/2+73)" instead of "NWR (1/5) Electro Diesel (Measurement Train) 114m"? It's got the correct 90mph maximum speed applicable already?
