165 MPH Amtrak Alstom Avelia Liberty (New Acela 21) Daylight Testing in Rhode Island (April 2021)

READ:
For two weeks in April 2021, trainset 2 returned to the Boston / Rhode Island area for a bout of representative route testing between Providence and Westerly. Here is a compilation of testing action, in no particular chronological or locational order. Enjoy, and be sure to keep an eye out for tilting action =)

Nice that you are getting HST units. But you guys are going to need some HST track to use these trains as intended.

There will be one, between LA and Vegas, in the next 5 years or so. If the stupid NIMBYs in Texas will ever acquiesce, Texas will have a Shinkansen, between Dallas and Houston.

​@frglee Amtrak has been upgrading the rails to handle the new Avelia trainsets for 160mph+ service. The new rails are only in the NE Corridor. However, Amtrak does own a set of tracks between Chicago and Detroit that they have the diesel 'Wolverine' service running at 110mph. I wouldn't be suprised if Amtrak extended the Acela service to Detroit and Chicago on those rails.

Just an FYI, we have had electrified high speed service on the NEC since the days of the Pennsylvania Railroad, which built the NEC. This new unit is undergoing testing. To me tho, it won’t replace the Acela which looked and matched in design much better. The people at Alstrom are morons. These designs are not at all seamless nor matching in streamlining. The locomotive has one of the ugliest designs for high speed rail service. The European designs are much more streamlined and faster… I hope AMTRAK orders a redesign, this is an embarrassment of design…

In a lot of places in the USA, there is no need for protection because the tracks are so far away from any roads, towns, or people. In the cities there usually is some form of fence or wall. But the stations, even the largest ones, have ZERO security measures what so ever. They may have a random security guard walking around but there are no baggage inspections or metal detectors or stuff like that.

[@jaysmith1408]

Always wondered why the power cars never tilted, not so much for comfort, bur for weight distribution. They’re really heavy, and having that further in would lower rail stress and reduce rollover risk

[@Greatdome99]

The wheels don't care what the suspended body is doing. Tilting is only for passenger comfort, not for tracking. The slight shift in CG to the outside rail would actually be detrimental. And don't forget, the track is superelevated anyway.

And anyway, it's a fuckin high passenger train or TGV for the few europeans in the comment section, you don't need a monstrous horn. In Europe, we know how to use the horn on TGVs, when the engineer is saluting, they aren't making ambulance melodies. So leave the ginormous american horns (the badass horns) to the slower trains either passenger or freight.

Amtrak's Acela Express, which runs through the Northeast Corridor from Boston to Washington, DC, can reach speeds of 165 miles per hour, but frequently runs at an average of 70 miles per hour between those cities .Hayabusa is the fastest train in Japan, reaching a maximum speed of 320 km/h (200 mph). Starting with the Tōkaidō Shinkansen (515.4 km, 320.3 mi) in 1964, the network has expanded to currently consist of 2,764.6 km (1,717.8 mi) of lines with maximum speeds of 240-320 km/h (150-200 mph), 283.5 km (176.2 mi) .... The fastest train service measured by peak operational speed is the Shanghai Maglev Train which can reach 431 km/h (268 mph). The HSR network reached just under 38,000 km (24,000 mi) in total length by the end of 2020. The HSR building boom continues with the HSR network set to reach 70,000 km (43,000 mi) in 2035
