The numbers I gave are very generalized. The ~120 kph speed would only apply to an express passenger train traveling on very good, straight, tracks in good weather conditions. This would be representative of "high balling" speeds for a US passenger locomotive of the period, or for the fastest UK express trains.

Realistically, local trains and goods/freight trains traveled much slower, especially if there was risk of enemy attack or sabotage, if the roadbed was in poor shape, or if the tracks were on an incline or curved. So, the speeds you gave are far more representative.

But, my idea of letting mission builders set speeds for vehicles at some level less than maximum still holds.
