Average Freight Train Speed. For the first decade of the 21st century, freight train speed has varied between 20 and 23 mph. The low was reached in 2006, when rail speeds averaged only 20 miles an hour. The figure has increased slightly since 2006 due to a weaker economy that has resulted in shorter lines of cars.
Todayâs bullet trains can top 300 mph. When Englishman Richard Trevithick launched the first practical steam locomotive in 1804, it averaged less than 10 mph. Today, several high-speed rail lines are regularly travelling 30 times as fast. When Japanâs first Shinkansen or âbullet trains,â opened to coincide with the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, they were capable of running at speeds in excess of 130 mph.
