Somewhere south of Peterborough, at 140 mph.
About the Rat
Black Knight is interested in the interaction of science (as a day job and as a way of thinking) with his family, the wider community and literature. And tormenting students. Frequently polemical, sometimes serious, and hopefully always entertaining more

Wow, was that train going that fast? Are you sure you're in the UK? Was it on time?

The train in front of mine was four minutes late—mine was a similar amount of time early. Most trains on that line were ahead of schedule.
I calculated the speed by timing the (quarter) mile markers zipping past, and actually posted this from the train (free wifi).
No, I don't believe I'm in England.

Free wifi on a train?
140 mph?
I don't believe you were in England either. You sure those weren't quarter kilometre markers?
