We have always wanted to know the speed of our trains also. In Feb we purchased a Speed scaler at a train show. It can be set for 1:22.5, 1:20.3, 1:24, etc. Tried it out with different brands of locos at full throttle. <br /> <br />Found that our fast locos that seemed to race around the track hit top speed of 30 mph, the slowest 15 mph. <br /> <br />Is it accurate? Not sure, but from what we have read and seen it appears to be relatively accurate. <br /> <br />George
