What was the first man made machine to do 100 mph . where and when?



Answers:
1904 in France

The 100 MPH barrier was quickly broken later in 1904 when the land speed record returned to France. Louis Emile Rigolly was one who loved racing wheel-to-wheel with an opponent and is considered the world's first true drag racer. After being defeated in a standing mile race by Paul Baras, Rigolly decided to do something spectacular to save face; he flew through the kilometer at 103.55 mph (166.64 kph) and dazzled the crowd.
im not 100% sure but i think it was the flying scotsman train when it went from london the edingburgh but im not sure
Likely a steam locomotive. There are many accounts of US steam locomotives doing over 100 mph pulling passanger trains. Likely happened 1900-1930 timeframe. Many of the superpower steam locomotives were capable of 100 mph.
