I’m gonna be the bum. EMU stands for “Electric Multiple Unit”. They can travel faster because of better trucks (suspension if you will), better brakes and no emissions.

EMU = Electric Multiple Unit. Basically a set of carriages with electrical power equipment included that can operate without a locomotive, and can be coupled together to form longer trains under the control of a single driver. Distributing the power and the heavy equipment needed to make it work over many vehicles makes them lighter weight, and the control system makes the brakes more responsive than a locomotive hauling coaches or freight cars. This means they can operate safely at higher speeds, hence the differential speed limits.

Finally, some proper regulation for high-speed emu traffic.

From this I infer that emus have a shorter stopping distance. Which makes sense, especially in England.

Wait til you find out why the NSW government in Australia called their new intercity train the “Mariyung” also known as the d set.

They learned from Australia.

Emus are terrifying. An emu running at you at 65mph is terrifyinger!

Emus cannot run faster than 50KMPH.

This sign is old, we have a differential board now with both on one board. we use the bottom speed and freight use the top

Didnt know they live in england too
EMUs have better brakes.
