    Wondering how to interpret this - are they hinting at something in excess of 75mph?

    It's just marketing. There are around 750 preserved steam locomotives in the UK. Only around 30 of them are approved for mainline use on the national network. As one of those 30, Tornado is therefore "one of the few".
