In early 1970s in Russia there were tests of trains that had jet plane engines.
Its maximum speed was around 249 km/h (around 180 mph). And it had engines from Yak-40 passenger jet plane.
Later they decided to put the engines from another Russian jet plane TU-134 to the passenger boat. So it could go as fast as 100 km/h (60 mph) on water when carrying passengers!
It’s a big pity but none of those are in use these days.
