Can BART really Go up to 100MPH (Miles per hour)?

Question

rode the BARt under the transbay tube a few days ago. it feels like it is going very fast. i dont know how fast, but when you ever ride bart, it feels like it is going very fast. i sat in the front before, and looked inside where the bart driver sits and operates the train. near him i saw two flashing numbers. the one that i saw was in green. the one in green saids 00. but then when the train moves, the number changes from 00 to 30-40. then when it goes in the transbay tube, it changed from 30-80.im guessing the numbers tell how fast the train is traveling? do you think im right? if not, tell me why i am not right.

Answer 1

According to BART themselves, maximum speed is 80mph.  So the answer to your question, I would assume would be right.

Answer 2

BART can do OVER 100mph,but they don't go that fast due to safety/scheduling issues.

Answer 3

Sounds right to me.  Digital speed recorders are everywhere.
