A hydraulic system for a vehicle having an engine (10) governed to run within a predetermined speed range; the engine (10) arranged to drive a motive power train (11), a charge pump (14), a variable displacement pump (12) and a fixed displacement pump (15). The variable and fixed pumps (12 and 15) are arranged to supply hydraulic fluid pressure to a work circuit (26). A flow signal is created by passing the output from the charge pump (14) through an orifice (40), which signal is routed to a speed valve (46) which directs fluid to a control ram (78) to reduce the displacement of the pump (15) during a predetermined intermediate portion of said speed range.
