Virgin Trains operate from Birmingham New Street to London Euston or Chiltern Railways operate from Birmingham Snow Hill to London Marylebone. Also, London Midland operate the same route as Virgin Trains, however the trains take around 1 hour longer in each direction. Virgin Trains are the quickest, but usually the most expensive.
a runway
If you reduce wing size the aircraft will take longer distance and will have to attain higher ground speed before lift-off.
O'Hare's longest runway is 13,000 feet.
For trains to cross the forth hundreds of trains cross it each day if it wasn't for the forth rail bridge journey times from Edinburgh to the north will take a lot longer
Yes, the faster you are moving the longer it will take to stop.
The wheels do not lock up with abs. This gives you more control to steer the vehicle out of danger but it takes longer to stop.
For takeoff, it requires so much thrust to get it off the ground that if it used a regular runway, it would need something like 5 miles behind it to avoid damage. So they make it take off vertically to avoid that. A space shuttle lands on a regular (but slightly longer) runway just like a plane.
