While technically a high speed ‘regional’ metro(like the ones China has been building) does have a top speed of 160km/h, it is more like regional rail than a ‘lowest tier’ urban transit. Most metro systems have a top speed of 80km/h due to station spacing and physics (motor gear ratios tuned for accelaration).

That or you are talking about the Keisei Skyliner, which is an Airport Express service.
