I thought the MARC trains ran slower than that, but according to Wikipedia, they run even faster - 125 mph!

I've heard that, but I've never seen one of their trains actually hit that speed, mostly because the stops are too close to accelerate that high

They run on the same line and the cars are rated for it. The engines, depending on what you get, are rated, but some go max 110.
Still, I can brag about recompiling my company's management system at 125 MPH.
