Set Max Speed to Command Problem

When I use the "Set Max Speed to" command <kuid2:450022:90001:2>, the AI trains travel a little below the limit I have set. For example, I have a train set to 70 MPH, but he will only go to about 65 MPH. Is there a workaround for this? Not the biggest deal in the world, I know.

The obvious question to ask is what is the maximum allowed speed for that particular loco asset? Some locos (and rolling stock assets) have a maximum speed built into their config.txt file. The tag "max_permitted_speed-60850" sets the maximum allowed speed for that rolling stock asset.

I have a route where the loco has a maximum set speed of 47mph and it will not exceed that speed for track with a speed limit of 50mph (or greater) or when the Set Max Speed command is set to a higher speed.

PS: Don't forget that there are two versions of the Set Max Speed To driver command - one for MPH and the other for KM/H

The top speed for the loco is 70 MPH. I tested the train without the speed limit command, and he went the full 70 MPH. Also, when I set the top speed to 50 mph, it will still go a few MPH lower than the command.

Yes, I did make sure I was using the MPH version of it

Does the same thing happen to other types of locos or is it just specific to this loco?

Does the loco have the max-speed permitted tag in its config somewhere set to 65?
 
Another issue with this command is that whenever you leave the session it no longer works. Whenever you stop the train, it must be added back again. Hopefully this will be fixed.
