While looking at both the south and north sections of the London and North Western Sectional Appendices, I have noticed that for the route mainly north of Preston, there is only a five mile difference in terms of maximum speed (for example, 105 normal, 110 EPS).
Is it intended to have these equalised post HS2, or would it not be worth it for a very tiny difference as it is already at a three figure digit?
Also, for the London Euston - Crewe/Preston section, is it intended for everything to be timed for 110mph pre-Pendolino days, or will there still be 125mph on the not so curvy sections?
One last question - would the track equipment (I think it may be TASS - whatever that is short for) that tells when/enables the train to tilt be removed?
