The 464 has a sign in the cab that states that speed is limited to 30mph,

Management would not have put the sign there if engineers were at times not pushing that limit.

I suspect that in the flats the Ks could reach speeds a lot higher but on the Mountain curves the track was much more the limiting factor.
