Actually, unloaded locos get up to speed surprisingly quickly ;-), especially when you go WOT on a 3000 odd hp diesel!
My estate will be getting a remap at some point which should take it straight up to around 120. Add an intercooler and sort the pump and it's 150+. I fitted a towbar and towed a caravan chassis behind it, barely noticed the extra weight. Pug rate the estate to tow 1200kg braked!

That doesn't count

as it's only turning a Generator, the batteries power AC motors - which means maximum torque from 0 speed.
That system in a car would make it rapid off the mark as well.
