The trains seem to accelerate much faster than those in NYC. They have a real nice pickup.These are the legacy specification: 0 to 50 MPH: 23 seconds Maximum speed: 75 MPH Starting acceleration: 3 MPHS Service braking 3 MPHS The AC propulsion equipped rolling stock has a higher acceleration rate. They have been detuned to maintain compatibility with the older rolling stock. John in the sand box of Maryland's eastern shore. |
