By which locomotive & coaches if I can ask. The period with the introduction of the Mk3s (July

What was the fastest speed that the 071's were cranked up to on trials, I was told by a driver about 10 years ago, that he topped 112 mph when they were on test in 1976. I know that they can do the ton no problem, but anyone have a max speed?
Doesn't seem to be any record on google. 071 - top speed 75mph and 201 - 100mph , how in 1984 did this speed be reached!!...
