'A' stock trains have a maximum speed of around 50mph as they are now very old dears - the oldest are 45 years of age. As an example, it takes ten minutes longer now to travel from Watford to Baker Street than it did when I was a kid in the early 1980s. When the 'S' stock is introduced on the met (in 2010?) expect a big drop in journey times as the trains will have a maximum speed of 70mph. THC |
