I’ve done this ride 3x, tomorrow will be my 4th. I don’t recall hitting those speeds, the majority of time we are crawling through towns. BUT FAR less hassle than driving Annapolis to fort Myers FL.
I live in South Carolina, halfway state on the Auto Train route, but want to just make one trip on that train for the hell of it some day working out a trip visiting places at each end.
The Amtrak auto train An Amtrak money money maker i hope eventually passenger serviice on the rails will boom i just don t like the new looks of Amtrak

Took the auto train in 2018 round trip. Nice trip. Our van made it to Florida on a full tank of gas!
the train engineer saw you and honked its horn once for you !! thumbs up !! ;-)
The passenger train that turns into a freight train!
60mph. 86 feet per second, so prolly more like 58 mph. ok works out to 59 mph
That’s Walthall… that used to be a road crossing years ago .

Cause you can bring your car onboard the train with you. We do next more of this kind of service around the USA
