If anyone cares, the curve that Amtrak train No. 188 derailed on starts at 1:45:08. It is noticeable that the train slows from 30 sec before to the curve and that there is additional noise as it goes around the curve. However, as his speedometer shows, the Acela is traveling at 95kph (60mph) which is slightly higher than the 50mph speed limit listed in the news. That is understandable given the Acela's tilting mechanism.

[@SavvDaDon]

Lysol because in China and Japan, they run trains at terminal velocity

[@cyndie26]

Unfortunately, the train can't do that because of intermittent stops. Maybe if New York was the only stop, the train could run at that speed.

[@altavelmcnamara]

cyndie26 Chinese HST Beijing - Shanghai 1318 km 4h28min max speed 217 mph(on 95% of the track), avg. speed 190 mph 2 stops. Amtrak New York - Boston 369 km 3h38min max speed 150 mph(on 50 km of the track), avg. speed 63 mph 2 stops. Can you see the difference ?

[@LSM_Lover]

Thanks.

[@danielrbsutton]

The trains in the US also share tracks with freight railroads, and unfottunately are not exclusively designed for high speed rail. The US needs to do a major overhaul of its rail networks in order to have trains like Europe and China. The US' priorities are a bit backwards...

I lived in the northeast corridor in the 60's. The best train then was the Congressional on this run. Real luxury-six coaches and ten parlor cars, with one all drawing room, and a parlor observation on the rear. Best timekeeping however was 3 hours, 45 minutes. That trains are now making the same 226 mile run in 2 1/2 hours is impressive. The ride on any train, Acela or northeast regional south of New York City is really rough. The ride on the old New Haven is wonderful for smoothness, and the 160 mph for the last 30 minute before Providence is like glass. Great ride.

[@johncantatore7986]

The one time I boarded an Acela train, taking the same trip shown in the video, the train broke down in the Maryland suburbs right after exiting the Washington DC boundaries, this left me with a bad taste in my mouth when dealing with Amtrak only exacerbated by the fact we we're all herded on to a normal Amtrak train that was already full after this incident. I'm beginning to think I'm cursed because the next time I took Amtrak from New York bound for Plattsburgh someone committed suicide by jumping in front of our train in colonie right outside of Albany. Acela seemed like it was as good as it got for traveling the Northeast corridor w Amtrak if everything went as planned though!

[@goropeza101]

Thank you John for posting this and I'm glad I didn't take the Acela and after watching this lame boring video now i know why!

Don G. The US is a lot largger. Acela runs around 125-150 mph where as the British HST runs 125 mph on old rail lines which were built more than a hundred and fifty years ago. To go much faster the trains would have to run on newly laid rail lines. As it is both HST and Acela attain their speed with tilting technology. Acela takes 6 hours to get to Boston MA from Washington DC. A person could fly that distance and catch a cab downtown to downtown in less than 3 hours. It takes Amtrak 3 days to cross the county coast to coast averaging less than 50 mph. Even if we tripled the speed it would take a day. The British spent billion pounds to build a new high speed rail link to the Channel Tunnel for 5.8 billion pounds for 69 miles. The Channel Tunnel cost 4.8 billion pounds. A British pound is worth off hand around 1.5 US dollars. The distance from Washington DC to Boston MA is 439 miles using I-95, slightly more than 6 times as far as the new Channel Link rail line. The distance using I-80 from Chicago to New York City is 790 miles, almost 11 times as far as the new Channel Link rail line. The distance using I-44 and I-40, the old US Hwy 66 route, is 2121 miles. is more than 30 times as far as the new Channel Link rail line. You do the math figuring each 69 miles runs in US dollars around 9 billion. Offhand, 99 billion to Chicago from New York City, and another 270 billion to Los Angeles from Chicago. Currently Amtrak's annual budget is less than 2 billion per year, FY 2014 is 1.6 billion. Simply put, the US will never spend so much for a cross country high speed train when flying is faster.

[@SeaToby11]

SeaToby11 The British are studying HS2, building new high speed rail lines to Birmingham with two branches one to Manchester and the other to Leeds from Birmingham. Some 340 miles total, for around 43 billion pounds. Another report claims it will cost 80 billion pounds. About five times as far as HS1, the Channel Tunnel Link. Much ess than half the distance to Chicago from New York City.The British can consider this as the bulk of British passengers from the north could reach London using this route. But one cannot say the same with one cross country US high speed rail line.

[@emildekoven4872]

Generally wearisome landscape: single-story, commercial sprawl and scrub forests. Most of the impracticality of passenger rail service in the U.S. derives from the lack of density of its so-called cities. Motor fuel prices are kept artificially low, and airlines and airports have been heavily subsidized since WWII. Laptops have aided with appealing to business travelers since it's easier to work over the 2.5 hours which lapse. Also, there's a sense of less pressure..... Sleep is even possible....?
