Most definitely not Swansea!
I’ve not hit Didcot or Swindon at 70. I’m sure it can be done but I quite like my licence. 40-50 is easily doable though. Chippenham you can have quite a fast approach too, and Reading but only if the signal on the end of the platform is off which is very rare.
As drivers get more experienced I’m sure those numbers will go up.
I did make up quite a bit of time on 1U28 (1912 London - Bristol) last night, definitely my best Swindon - Bristol Parkway time to date:
