Re: DLR Challenge
As the existing record is 2:00, I very much doubt it is possible to do 1:54 with Stratford International.
Soon to be yet another forum train driver

Re: DLR Challenge
Hi all
I just thought I'd introduce myself, and here seemed an obvious place to do it. I'm Ivo, Neil's team mate for this, and I have met several of this forum before now, including among others Andi.
Neil's 1:54 was a mistake; it did not include several factors and was calculated wrongly. As things stand we are confident that our time is strong, but it is of course longer than 2 hours.
Anyway, hello!
