Magnetic levitation, or maglev, technology has been around since the 1940s, but it's only now coming into focus as a means of high-speed transit. There are several maglev train systems spread ...

Soundproofing buffers at tunnel mouths to be rolled out on China’s latest magnetic levitation train prototype Researchers hope they may have solved the “tunnel boom” problem as they prepare to roll ...

China's maglev bullet train, which is in its experimental phase, reportedly surpassed its own world record for acceleration. The bullet train went from zero to 800km per hour in 5.3 seconds, breaking ...

China has stunned the global transport world after a Maglev Train reached an unbelievable 700 km/h in just two seconds. This breakthrough has set a fresh world record and pushed the limits of what a ...

China is racing to build a new kind of train that does not just rival jetliners, it threatens to redefine what “high speed” even means on land. Engineers are now testing a magnetic levitation system ...

‘Maglev’ is a portmanteau of ‘magnetic levitation’. Instead of running on wheels, maglev technology uses strong magnetic fields to lift the train and move it forward. Since the train floats above the ...

Japan is no stranger to engineering marvels, particularly when it comes to travel. A new “floating” train line has now taken it one step further, travelling 217 miles in just 40 minutes. Article ...
