can anyone tell me what the top speed is of the eurostar line is in the uk?The "eurostar line" is called High Speed 1. Max line speed is 186mph.
Philip.
Sorry to be a real pedant (no, I'm not really), but the maximum line
speed on HS1 (parts of it, anyway) is 300km/h. Imperial units are not
used, and all lineside signage relating to speeds is expressed in
kilometres.
The units make no difference to the physics. You could use
furlongs/fortnight to express it if you wanted.
