All Network Rail speed restrictions are in mph, except a handful (very
distinctive) ones that are in both mph and kph (the units for the kph speed
are on the sign) near the mouth of the Channel Tunnel (essentially the route
between there and the freight yards).

I don't believe there are any speed restrictions on the high speed line
(it's all done by displays in the train cabs). It's a bit hard to survey
them at 300kph.

I'd be reluctant to see separate ways for Circle / H&C / Met. This is
another example where the renderers have got to crack how to draw
asymmetrical lines (ie one colour on the left of the line, another on the
right).
