Скачать или смотреть Trenitalia E464 acceleration - Brindisi to Lecce Pt 3 Squinzano to Trepuzzi

How fast do the Trenitalia Class E464 Locomotives accelerate? Here we sample a journey between Brindisi and Lecce aboard a 'regional; train. The consist is composed of 4 carriages - carrozze vicinali piano ribassato - propelled by a 72 ton Bombardier E464 locomotive of 4700Hp. The carriages weight approx 42 tons each plus passengers. So with a total consist weight of 240 tons, that equates to a massive 19.6 hp/ton, or twice as much accelerative power as a UK HST.
The speed Limit through Squinzano is more than the 140 km/h consist limit - which allows the E464 to be driven theoretically at maximum power to the speed limit, but it appears the driver applies power conservatively.
Line speed here is actually 200 km/h for Frecciabianca and Frecciargento services.
