Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but as the doubled-up Class 220 whisked me from Durham to Newcastle this morning I couldnt help but ponder over the '0 to 60mph' times for various classes, like they do with cars, or perhaps more interestingly, 0mph to the maximum speed of each class.
Naturally I assume that there are various factors such as railhead condition, slope, amount of passengers etc, but lets say for the sake of argument, does anyone have any stats on the acceleration performances for full standard rakes of empty stock of some common classes, lets say Classes 156, 43, 91, 185, 22x etc?
Is acceleration affected when working in multiple?
Cheers!
