“Another image I could not quite wrap my head around was going 200 miles per hour. Or even 150 for that matter. The truth is, the train is so silky smooth that you never even know that you are traveling so fast. There are no bumps or any jerking motions when it slows down or speeds up. The only time you can feel the speed is when you look out the window and see buildings and trees whipping by so fast that your brain has trouble processing it.”
