I've always wondered if the addition of the extra coach affects the performance of them significantly. Another poster put forward an idea of using redundant LNER HSTs on the MML. My immediate thought was that they would need shortening as the stop start nature of the route could not cope with 9 unpowered carriages.
What was the effect on performance like when ECML HSTs were lengthened to 9 coaches back in 1998? Was any slack added into the timetable to allow for this?
