Yes, the timings taken from the Melton Mowbray 222 diagram and compared to the best 360 diagrams.Are you sure that’s Corby bound 222's ......360s accelerate rather better.
The 360's are slightly better off the mark (on full power) - but they are rarely driven on full power from a stand.
Initial start aside - there is barely any difference.
The approach to Wellingborough South junction will depend on traffic (how quickly the signaller can clear the route) and then the individual drivers approach to and from the junction. A five-car 222 will be able to accelerate quicker away from the junction than an 8-car or 12-car Class 360.
