I'd certainly hope that the linespeeed would be 60mph like a stretch of the Brock to Lymington line.
Maybe it would a contender for a bi mode 3rd rail / battery powered train with say a small fleet of 3 cartiage trains which could also be used on the Lymington (in full 3rd rail mode) and ideally for a Poole to Swanage service (though that's very unlikely to happen as Swanage Railway want to run the operation to Wareham themselves and at 25mph, the line would need upgrading to attract people out of their cars.
