Im pretty sure if the engineer was going way faster than usual, then either the train would've de-railed, or the train would've stopped and the engineer would no longer have a job with the corporation. Rough track can cause that illusion

I've been riding between SD and L.A. since I was 2, I know the Usual Speed, and he wasnt going over any limits he was taking curvs faster and got us there faster, but yes, the ride was bumpy
