[edit] Naming convention

There is a discussion about the naming convention to use for articles about British locomotive and multiple unit classes at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (British railway locomotive and multiple unit classes). Your comments are more than welcome. Thryduulf 22:29, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Weight?

What is the weight of this train? Edward 14:29, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Weight 414t (8 car) or 457t (9 car). As the source is a Finnish website [1], I presume the unit 't' is Metric tonnes. Thryduulf 16:00, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Not the only fastest train in Britain

The Eurostar is not a multiple unit! But if your including the Eurostar then you should also add the Class 91 which has a top speed of 140Mph!

IIRC the pendolino in it's original configuration was rated to do 140 but the track upgrades required to run at that speed were never made. Plugwash 09:42, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
