To clarify BuildingScout's statement above:

The UK has 1 "Official" 300 km/h+ line called "High Speed 1" which runs from St. Pancras in London to the channel tunnel entrance.

The trains I mentioned above are on their conventional "highER speed network" which ran a system called the InterCity 125 for almost 40 years at 125 mph/200 km/h. This is what the Hitachi "Chevy Volt" trains I was saying could be good for us are running on.
