    Yes… The point is the maximum design speeds of both are very similar.

    Yes TGVs run operationally at much higher speeds than the Acela II but that is due to infrastructure, not the train itself. The train itself, independent of track constraints, is capable of similar speeds. I don’t think there’s much more worth saying on the matter.
