Do they? I've seen quite a few Rail Signs that seam to be in km/h. Not
being a train driver I'm not always sure. I think that it might be
that National Rail use mph and Euro Tunnel use kph. I think we might
have to find a train expert to check.....

On a simular subject are there ways of Tagging 3rd Rail vs Overhead Power etc

Oh and London Bridge is a mess, on 5 or 6 Layers. Needs major work,
but is very difficult.... Is there a way of tagging platforms with
where the trains go. eg Platform 3 - Maidstone and Paddock Wood for
Strood.
