    That video was at a train station called Princeton Junction trains on the inside track go 125mph to 135mph (Acela) the train on the two outside tracks go about 100 or 110 sometimes 90 rarely though usually either an Amtrak stop service or NJT (not my video btw)

    But not until DTG have sorted US in-cab signaling. It's currently a mess.

    Plus I feel like the dlc should be 15$ I think 25$ for a loco add on is pricey

    I would love to see An Acela DLC, the speed and the sound of the engine, pure awesomeness! I explained it in a lot more detail why an acela dlc would be great on this thread if you guys wouldn't mind taking a look!

    Usually some old news articles will have a bunch of info about it. Back then Amtrak was keen on showing off their new shiny bullet train!
