The speed limit for trains passing through a town can vary significantly depending on local regulations, the type of train, and the specific conditions of the track. Typically, speed limits in urban areas range from 10 to 25 miles per hour (16 to 40 kilometers per hour) to ensure safety for pedestrians and vehicles. It’s important for train operators to adhere to posted speed limits and for towns to communicate any changes to these limits effectively. Always refer to local transportation authorities for the exact regulations in a specific area.
Yes. Going under the speed limit is (-) going over the speed limit is (+) going on the speed limit is (0)
You can be ticketed for failure to adjust speed to traffic conditions.

Yes, you can get a ticket for going 5 over the speed limit, as exceeding the speed limit by any amount is considered a violation of traffic laws.
There is no inherent limit to the speed of maglev trains, but practical considerations such as track infrastructure, energy consumption, and safety can influence their maximum operating speeds. Currently, the fastest maglev trains have reached speeds around 375 mph (603 km/h) in commercial service.
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.
No, it is not legal to pass another vehicle by going over the speed limit.
Whatever the speed limit for any other vehicle on that roadway is. Most of the Interstate there has a 75 MPH speed limit (except when going through cities), and you're allowed to drive 75 (provided your truck isn't governed below that).
Yes, you can receive a ticket for going 5 miles per hour over the speed limit.
Yes, many state highways have a minimum speed limit.
This question makes no sense, what do you mean? the speed of the car does not dictate the posted speed limit.
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.
