No need to lose your rag.
The fact remains that a couple of HST services were timetabled non-stop to Parkway in 1h08. I don't think drivers were expected to overspeed.
Current plans under electrification seem to be for the same journey non-stop in about the same time.
It's an interesting comparison, which shows just how many other factors come into play, and how end-to-end speed, frequency of service and frequency of stops are all inter-related.
