  • thats nice they tell you how fast you are going lol

  • Video compression is optimized for large sections of the screen only changing a little. Filming the trees along a train moving that fast gives little opportunity for the compression to work. You could see it present much more detail and a faster frame rate when most of the screen wasn't changing.

  • I'm so excited! I'm riding the Acela tomorrow from New Haven to Providence taking a Regional back. Looking at some of these comments, they don't tell you when you're going 150, you need to find it yourself. To help me a whole lot, does anyone know about how long before Providence or after New London I can expect about 150 mph?

  • They did not announce the top speed when I rode it, but my GPS showed a top speed of 146mph.

  • Yeah, that's cool that top speed was announced. I'm riding it later this week and will try to capture the top speed on my handheld GPS on video.

  • Thats good to hear that your conductor told when u were traveling at top speed. Mine never do!
