Train not driving at max speed

[Cootuh]

So i bought a high-speed train, upgraded all of my tracks to make sure they can support the high spped, BUT the train only drives 90 km/h all the time instead of the advertised 200 km/h!
Any clues would be appreciated!
Thanks

how fast is the max speed of the carriages?

[TransportTycoon_Joker]

Is there any waggon/car that only has max speed of 90kph?

[Kedryn]

1) Do the passenger cars have a lower speed limit?
2) Is there enough room between stops for the train to get to 200km/h?

[Cootuh]

1) I don't know. I bought multiple units set that had max speed:200 written on it
2)yes

Do you have any stone bridges on route as they are limited to 90km/h ?

If a multiple unit says 200 it will do 200 (unless you attach a slow wagon of course !)

[Cootuh]

oh, it seems like stone bridges were the problem!

You can use the track speed overlay to find out the line speed around your network . Steel bridges required !

There are problems that I have encountered too.
1) Trains on through express lines slow down at some [not all and in one direction only] modular stations for no reason at all [correct track used as in high speed] 130mph - 87mph.
2) Over a bridge it went from 100+mph to 20mph [happened in TF1 sometimes too].
3) Track speed 75mph [seen on overlay] but train did no more than 33mph for a long stretch then sped up to 60mph [speed of train/coaches]. This was on a level track.

There are many other problems with this game too.

Trains will need time to get to the max speed. I did set up a high speed line, most flat, most 300 km/h is rail speed, set one high speed train - the 300 km/h Asian, it did get to 300, but past the 3/4 of the way, by mid-way it was only going to 250. and the map was a 1:4 large map. both towns are at one end and the other at the other end of the map.

And when you setup a train, the wagons are to match the speed of the locomotive, so a locomotive with a speed of 120, with not go 120 with a set of 80 wagons. It will go only 80 max. And it will take a few time to get the max speed. If the stations are not far, the train will not get to the max speed., if the rails setup is flat as possible, less curve as possible. And with high speed bridges.
