Best Answer

No. Speeds are established by the railroads to be safe, and are based on track conditions, grades, curves, crossings, etc. Towns do not have the authority to regulate the speed of a train passing through.

Do trains have speed limits?

Yes they have to follow a certain speed limit while they are going through a town,city,or even a suburb. * Added - In the US, for every train line and for every train there are speed limits both imposed by regulation and by railroad rules. By Federal regulation, trains are limited to certain speeds based upon the condition of the track and how often it is inspected. In addition, depending upon the type of train and the particular locomotives and cars in the train, Federal regulations and railroad rules impose speed limits. The most restrictive speed limit, meaning the slowest, that applies to the train is the speed limit the train must obey. Additional speed limits that reduce the speed further may be imposed temporarily or permanently for many reasons.


Why were bridges important railroads?

Railroad equipment, by nature of design, cannot be efficiently pulled over steep grade and operations cannot be done through rivers, streams, etc. The bridge is a critical piece of a railroad as it allows trains to be able to pass over rivers, grades, gorges, etc. and generally smooths out the trip and limits waste by going over obstructions rather than around or through them.

How many trains are there in ni mbasa city on Pokemon black?

Well most of the trains in Nimbasa City are Battle trains. One other train is the brown train (fourth train from the stairs on the right) and this train takes one to a town called Anville Town in the left hand corner of the map. This is a peacefull town, try it out! In total with the extra train to Anville Town there are 8 trains. These (going from the stairs clockwise) are, Wi-Fi trains, Multi Trains, Super Multi Trains, Anville Town trains, Super Double Trains, Double Trains, Super Single Trains, and Single Trains. You will find that you need to do Single and Double trains first before you can move on to the Super Single, and Super Double trains. The Multi trains, Wi-Fi trains, an trains to Anville Town can be used without going on any other trains. Hope I helped!
