I don't have much positive to say about the DEMU killers but the new translink CAF 4000 has very good acceleration. About 10% better than the CAF 3000
From stopping at Yorkgate to passing Fortwilliam Depot in a 4000 (1.24 miles) you will go from 0 to the linespeed of 70mph while a CAF 3000 would be at around 60. A 450 would be around 50mph if it was one of the better performers such as 459
