  • @vectorm1299 more like 148 mph I think but still pretty impressive, the HST was certainly capable of a lot more than track conditions allowed, which is the only reason its limited to 125 mph

  • Did you used a JVC Everio camcorder?

  • 43313 ex 43113 The Highlands

  • 43313 e 43113 The Highlands

  • @scott5175 did they check it wasnt in gear? :P

  • @Sephy69 It's a computer-generated announcement from a set of recordings - they use the same (or similar) system at Amsterdam Schiphol. Hell of a lot better than it used to be - you can at least make out that the train is going to North Berwick lol

  • @sexsexsex82 alternator

  • bloudy imressive! good sound aswell - lol

  • The MTU-engine is a german construction, you can start it, if the engine is warm, you can´t start it cold like other british loco engine, so, it has "clean" exhausts!^^

    greetings, Pati - Germany

  • I still think the valenta should have been given a last hurrah, and given the chance to run without speed limits along HS1.

    By no speed limits i mean both track speeds.

    Mechanicly and electricly restrictions lifted.

    If i recall correctly the prototype HST managed 168mph (correct me if i'm wrong) on normal BR tracks. No where near tracks the condition of HS1
