The ^13bn modernisation of the UK's West Coast mainline, linking London and Glasgow, has been completed.  Network Rail says services will be improved and journey times cut by up to 30% - but not quite as fast as in this video clip.  With the help of a timelapse camera in the cab of a train, watch the whole journey from London to Glasgow in just five minutes.
