Can you imagine Jack and Rose in the prow at 100 MPH?
Is there currently a train in the Western Hemisphere that does a hundred? I love cutaways. |

There are a number of trains which could do 100 if the were allowed and had the track to do it.
Remember, the United States Has the Most-Advanced Rail System in the World. U.S. freight railroads will get $23 billion worth of upgrades this year. Far more freight moves in the US by rail (vs. truck) than almost any other country in the world.

Through the curve rated for 35 mph. Not actually through the curve, more like through the guardrail and down onto the freeway. Oops.

Video made this very morning. I can vouch for references to 40mph gusts as they've been battering us all day as well.
The electric multiple unit nearly spoils the day! Interestingly, there wasn't a diesel loco in tow. One is usually tagged on at the back, to assist in the event of the steam loco suffering a problem. www.clan-line.org.uk

This looks like a UK locomotive, could be Scotland, Wales, or India though.

Camelbacks... hope the boiler blows down.
 A couple Soda Locomotives were imported for use in NY, but the only ones built here were by Baldwin in Philly for use in Michigan.
