Class 465/BREL/Hitachi (acceleration to 60mph)

these units are the slower variation to the 465 fleet made by BREL-ABB And supplied with BRUSH (traction motors) however on the North Kent line there is fairly level ground to accelerate on, and low and behold they aren't so bad.

These are also good on the line to Tunbridge Wells via Orpington, Sevenoaks, Tonbridge. Had 465012 today and it was awesome tbh

Hope you recorded numbers - but 465014 and 465157 (the units I got) are better than those units you filmed.

It took about 75 seconds on my one , this is older footage. But I remember on the way there it was 74 seconds to 60mph. So these aren't bad. But it's also the drivers too

[@gapthemind--mindthegap8524]

Nah I didn't , this was over a month ago.

@@gapthemind--mindthegap8524 OK

[@gapthemind--mindthegap8524]

@Solomon Clarke yeah, I've even got some metro cammel +BREL acceleration
