350's were not made for dashing about.
The only time I have seen one fast was when Pat the Frieghtliner shunter at Leeds said pit road.
That meant you were of home.
Take out the BIS, screw on the brake and off into infinity and beyond
A 350 would play with those sleepers and a light engine.
Perhaps a max load of 500 tons.
I have ridden on a 350 whilst pulling 38 loaded HAA's without coughing of splutterin, or 75 slu's of a frieghtliner train.
