Great video, that kid is really running to catch that train, hope he made it in time.

Is the BNSF Dash 9 geared to go 80mph?
Posted by Andrew Wodziak on July 12, 2010

I honestly don't know because track speed there is 70 M.P.H. for Amtrak, and 45 M.P.H. for freight trains.
Posted by Tim in Omaha on August 13, 2010

Track speed is 79 MPH for passenger trains and 59 MPH for freights in CTC territory.

Nope, not through here, track speed on the Chicago Sub from Chicago to Aurora is 70MPH for passenger, 45 for freight. Also, when a freight engine leads Amtrak, it's restricted to 70MPH down the mainline.
