I found a link that shows the speed limits from FEC mileposts 170 to 299: https://www.regulations.gov/document/FRA-2015-0062-0050 Please add both the passenger and freight speed limits; track class would be appreciated as well. Thanks!

I found a pretty recent timetable for the Northeast Corridor: https://archive.org/details/AMTK-NEC-employee-timetable-20240205-si/page/n1/mode/2up
When setting rail speed limits on the Northeast Corridor, please make sure to refer to Train Type B when using the regular maxspeed tag. The Acela, which can tilt in curves to reduce lateral forces, belongs to Train Type A, so don't forget to use the maxspeed:tilting tag in sections that allow higher speeds than in Train Type B.
