what if it's a Northeast Regional train leaving New York Penn at 3:00AM and the trip

When the train crosses the US/Canada border, how do they handle

how fast are Acela trains allowed to go when passing through stations?
I've only taken the Acela a few times because I don't live near any of
the cities it serves. :(
