140 mph trains would be wasted on the GEML. You won't get two tracks north of Shenfield I believe (happy to be corrected), too many obstacles I think. But your Clacton/Harwich semi-fast ects are gonna slow it down. I don't see why the line needs 'intercity' status, I liked the plan offering an AC 444 type train. Makes much more sense to me tb
