<p>[quote user="7j43k"]Than what? If the locomotive had had a 25% increase in tipping speed: 1.25 x 68 = 85 MPH.[/quote]</p> <p>The curve speed was restricted to 30 mph. So the speed restriction would have been 1.25 x 30 = 37.5 mph.</p> <p>Only the carbody gets tilted to relieve the passengers. The wheel-track system doesn't change. So the tipping speed is unchanged.<br />Regards, Volker </p>
