Hey Jim700, I'm only 44 years old, but I have fond memories of 90 MPH Amtrak rides , on both the Needles district, ( Trains # 3 & 4 ), and the Surf Line. ( San Diegans ). I also rode the Rio Grande Zephyr ( the VERY last full round trip ), at 79 MPH on jointed rail in Utah. The return trip, detouring over UP, was limited to 55 MPH because UP thought the old equipment could not handle high speeds on ribbon rail !!!
