An increase from 150 mph to 186 mph

FWIW, even in Europe, the fastest that you can milk a classic line from French, German, and Austrian experience has generally been 250 km/h (155 mph) or so. Classic lines generally have far less generous curvatures allowing for high speed operation. At best, the NEC is going to be a 250 km/h line even with tunnel and bridge replacement, additional track, elevated cant deficiency, and selected realignment.
