poor train looks exhausted! : (

Hey cool video just to let u know the top speed of Auto Train is not 60. I was on Auto Train earlier TODAY and we timed him between mile posts and got him at 75mph. Came back on Northbound auto train today
-
and this is because most intermodel trains are limited to 70 (112kph) and only the ATSF ran its super C trailer train at 90mph that would be great If amtrak could run that train at 79 or 90 mph someday
-
For many years, all trains have been limited to 50 mph through downtown Folkston. Don't know why. I have heard (13 Apr 2010) that the limit is about to be increased to 60 mph for Amtrak, but I don't know if this will apply to the Auto Train as well as the Silver Meteor and Silver Star.

There are two reasons for the slower speed, first Autotrain being a passenger and autorack combo top speed is 60 MPH. 2nd, they are crossing over from track two to track one, the double track ends a mile or so ahead and it is a slower turnout. Even regular Amtraks slow up through Folkston.
