The locomotive is electric and has 8600 peak hp. Think Tesla.

Ok thanks.

So I still sort of think something malfunctioned. I don’t see a reason to get up to 106mph for 5 or so minutes and then have to dramatically slow down for the 50mph curve? It just seems odd to me? Trains take a while to slow back down. If you have less than 11 minutes, there’s no reason to be up at that 106 speed.
