The C stock trains used on the Circle Line cannot do more than 40mph.
The speed limit varies along the line. There are some sections with a 35mph speed limit, but I don't know if there are any 40mph sections.

There's a good run through the Clerkenwell Tunnels!

40mph through there between Kings Cross disused and the curve outside Farringdon. It's a struggle to get that speed up anywhere else. Even where the speed limit is higher (out to Barking etc) C Stocks are not allowed to run over 40mph (although it would be possible).
