The top speed of a Victorian steam train typically ranged from 30 to 60 miles per hour (48 to 97 kilometers per hour), depending on the specific model and design. Some of the more advanced locomotives, like the Great Western Railway's "City of Truro," even reached speeds of up to 100 mph (161 km/h) in the early 1900s. However, safety and track conditions often limited operational speeds during the Victorian era.
