Interesting to see that internet access speeds have a new unit of measurement (from BBC News):

GNER, which operates between London Kings Cross, the East Midlands, Yorkshire, the North East and Scotland, said it would provide uninterrupted wi-fi coverage at speeds of up to 125mph.

The advent of wi-fi enabled trains is a very welcome development, but I’m dubious how useful it will be to begin with. With only one suitable train on the East Coast Main Line, it will be tricky (and will require extra research) to adjust journey times to make sure you’re on the right train.
