I had a 4 hour gap between university lectures (so I was already in central London). Even though the train was 42 minutes late, I still had plenty of time to get back to uni.
@@cmrailways Wikipedia says 0.96 for me. I've never been on a class 710 with 3rd rail before (only on the AC areas), so I can't really tell what you mean by that, is that good or..?
The value of 0.96 isn't in the referenced material. I cannot find the value of 0.96 in the news article referenced. In the limited info I can find, 0.7m/s² crops up a few times. Class 710 on 3rd rail feels underpowered compared to on AC, although I don't know if that's just due to speed/timetabling on the Watford DC line.
never have i ever thought you’d travel across london to ride a 701
I had a 4 hour gap between university lectures (so I was already in central London).

The Class 701 Arterio are such nice trains in both 10-Car (701/1) and 5-Car (701/5).
Do these trains have good acceleration like the other Aventras?
The acceleration feels like a class 710 on 3rd rail.
According to Wikipedia,
Class 701 acceleration is 0.7m/s²
(Class 720 is 0.8m/s²)
