      Yeah, but would it kill them to maybe speed them up a bit? Like maybe to 100 or 90 mph? I know they have the Shinkansen but still.

      @@amtrak1214 There are some lines where the trains go up to like 130 km/h or 80 mph. And honestly they have bullet trains so there’s not much of a need to make the express trains faster.

      I've gotten a similar effect shooting out the back of a Eurocity train in Germany. It looked like the ties/sleepers were moving in the same direction as the train.

      I believe it's because the country is so mountainous that narrower and shorter train cars can handle steeper grades and sharper curves.
