More time is likely to be lost for pathing allowances to let TL criss cross to and from the fast lines at various points. For operational and performance reasons It is almost time that TL were confined to the slow lines only to allow EMR dedicated access to the fast lines - especially now that EMR electrics will be operating the fast services to Luton and BedfordI think it's been mentioned that some of it will be 125 south of Bedford and will only deliver a minimal reduction in overall journey times. The main difference with all electric traction in TL land is that all trains will have similar acceleration performance and the intensive interleaving of TL and EMR services on the fast lines will be less fragile for both operators' timetables.
