If one wants to proves how fast the R-68s accelerate versus the 60' cars I think that they should do a test. Take a train of R-68s and run them on the express track of the Brighton or Sea Beach Line during of hours and time them between two set points. Then do the same with a 10 car train of 60' cars. Make sure that all the cars in both consists are in top condition before you run the tests. Then you'll have solid proof of the performance between the two different types of cars.
