Thanks Guys for posting on this. No one got it 100% right and if I had to guess prior to the tests I would have got it wrong.
The result was ---- ( Drumroll !!! lol )
1st -- Class 58
2nd -- Class59/2
3rd -- Class56
4th -- Class60
5th -- Class66
I personally fully expected the Class59/2 to be the fastest at the point where the speed/timing readings were taken.
I don`t really think it proves anything as so many variables exist, such as the variance within type of the 56/58 regarding performance. The G.M Locos are pretty much a fairly standard performer across the Class`s as is the 60.
If the Rail head conditions had been wet instead of dry the I`m pretty sure the 58 would have finished last with the 56 not much ahead of it and the 59/2 1st and either 60/66 2nd.
Regards & Thanks
