Hi,
As part of a project I am doing, I need to know the average speed of trains in the UK. The distance travelled by the train would be short (i.e less than a five mile journey). I have been trying to find the average speed of trains between stations that are less than five miles apart, but the sources I've found have varied between 35 and 65 mph. I would appreciate it if anyone here knew where to find such information and could point me in the right direction.
If you state a speed, please can you tell me how you know this, as I will need to reference my sources. Thank you very much.
(apologies if this is not the usual style of questions on this forum - I was not sure where else to look)
