We need a British version of "Bullet Train". How about "Knife Train"?

Cosh train?

Since we're moving away from Waterloo, perhaps we could stick two fingers
up at the French by calling it the Arrow Train instead .

We've already had the "Golden Arrow". How about "The Longbow" instead?

No, that's what you use to send it out of the station. I suppose
"Golden Bolt" could be misunderstood.
