Most of the time, the actual speed of the train is not the same as the one indicated by the speedometer. The actual speed of the train also heavily depends on the number of tracks placed in front of the train.

Most of the time, the actual speed of the train is not the same as the one indicated by the speedometer. The actual speed of the train also heavily depends on the number of tracks placed in front of the train.

When there are 7 tracks placed ahead of the train, the actual speed of the train matches the speedometer.

When there are 6.666 tracks placed ahead of the train, the actual speed of the train matches the speedometer.

The train speed is minimized when there are less than or equal to 3 tracks placed ahead of the train. At this time, the actual speed of the train can be as low as only 50% of the speedometer speed. This effect is reduced as the speedometer speed increases (for reference, the minimum speed is 80% of the speedometer speed when it reads 0.256m/s).

The train speed is minimized when there are less than or equal to 3 tracks placed ahead of the train. At this time, the actual speed of the train is the speedometer speed minus 0.05m/s.

The train speed is maximized when there are more than 25 tracks placed ahead of the train. At this time, the actual speed of the train can be 3.2 times higher than the speedometer speed. This effect is reduced as the speedometer speed increases (for reference, the maximum speed is 1.86 times the speedometer speed when it reads 0.256m/s).

The train speed is maximized when there are more than 25 tracks placed ahead of the train. At this time, the actual speed of the train is the speedometer speed plus 0.25m/s.

For any number of tracks (n) between 3 and 25, the actual speed equation is (3n - 20) / 220 + x where x is the speedometer speed.
