What I'm getting at, is that is there any reason why no-one's running Deltics at over 100mph on the ECML for our enjoyment  |
Just before I retired in 2006,the speed limit for "heritage" traction depended on the loco class,for instance a class 50 was limited to 75mph under power but 90mph coasting,that was for 50031 & 50149,whether it applied to all 50's I can't say.If I remember right 46072 was limited to 75 mph.
