Speed six was for the 6 cylinder engine not the 4 forward gears the transmission had.
The name blue train is because it raced the fastest train of it's time and won

@ Super8: It does look to be about the size of a dining car. Maybe the Bentley was 1st class and the train was coach. :D

@ Shaggy: Maybe it can driven on railway since it named Blue Train. Thought it's painted in Green.

@ Super8: I think it has something to do with its 6 cylinder engine, a huge one at that.
