Japan’s long-delayed Chuo Shinkansen maglev project has cleared a critical hurdle, with the last major obstacle to full construction finally showing signs of resolution — the outcome of nearly a decade of negotiations between Shizuoka Prefecture and Central Japan Railway…

World Record — Maglev Propulsion 0 to 800 km/hin 5.3 Seconds Chinese engineers have shattered their own maglev acceleration world record — reaching 800 km/h from a standstill in a time it takes to read this sentence, pulling over four…

China showcased its newest maglev iteration, a prototype train with a designed speed of 620 km/h (385 mph) in Chengdu, southwest China’s Sichuan Province. It uses the groundbreaking high-temperature superconducting (HTS) maglev technology for levitation and propulsion. Let’s see all…

Magnetic levitation technology is advancing at an unprecedented pace. China is introducing new maglev trains every few years, and Japan’s first high-speed maglev construction is well underway. The technology might not trickle down as-is to gadgets available for the enthusiasts,…

The next-generation Chinese medium-low speed maglev doubles the first generation’s top speed, and it becomes driverless. This new version of the CRRC maglev trains will elevate the intercity transit in China – and possibly abroad. Most of the R&D work…

The first commercial maglev line in South Korea is the success of a three-decades-long development project. The initial idea for using magnetic levitation in public transportation popped up in the 80s, with the first vehicles, the HML-01, and HML-02 ready…

If you look up “Maglev is…” on Google, it’s going to autofill the most popular questions that people have submitted into the search engine. So it would be just logical to answer the most commonly asked questions related to magnetic…

A 1:87 train model has been released with attractive pricing. There are two versions to choose from. The SMT (Shanghai Maglev Train) Transrapid, and the Transrapid 08 with DB (Deutsche Bahn) livery. Two Versions The top maglev model train is…

There is a light at the end of the tunnel, after decades-long neglect of high-speed passenger rail infrastructure in the United States. The density of the European high-speed rail lines and the recent success of China seem to have had…

Maglev conferences have been delayed as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. International Conference on Magnetic Levitation Technology and Maglev Transportation will be held across the Globe this year and the next. The International Symposium on Magnetic Bearings will…
