I was browsing the internet and found a news article announcing Trenitalia had been testing a consist comprising of two Class E464 4,693hp locomotives with a pair of UIC coaches in between.

So with 9,386hp for a total consist weight of 230tons - and a power to weigh ratio of almost 41hp/ton.
Has there ever been a more powerful UK test/passenger consist?
