I rode the nonstop Wash-NY Metroliner that was supposed to make the 225 miles in two-and-a-half hours. It came in 8 minutes late, so 225 miles / 158 minutes is an average speed of 85.44 mph, not too shabby. And that was when the NE Corridor was not as well-kept as today and still had a few grade crossings. I think the top speed was something like 110 mph. |
