The numbers that I have heard for the cable are 13-14 mph when traveling at full speed. The sources on that are pretty good.
Normal chains are in the vicinity of 3-6 mph. I don't know just how fast the lift is on Knobel's High Speed Thrill Coaster when they really open the throttle, but it feels fast.

Never argue with a fool for he may be doing the same
I quote direct from CP sources:
"How fast does the train ascend the first hill?
The Millennium Forceā¢ train ascends the first hill in 22 seconds, at 20 feet per second. That's 13 miles per hour. "
