Excessive Speed of Railways in Early Observations
The article reports varied rail speeds, noting flights of sixty miles per hour as experimental and unsustainable. It cites Jay Magland’s trial with a seven foot gauge and a passenger, but warns such velocities harmed wooden and iron components. It concludes typical lines run far slower, around thirty five miles per hour, with passenger trains seldom exceeding thirty five and average under thirty.
