Trains as fast as planes? Maglev technology promises this, allowing speeds of over 600 km/h and even up to 1,000 km/h, the ...

It was first moved to Cranfield University as a technology exhibit ... The dream of a British MagLev wasn’t over, but the 1980s Birmingham Airport shuttle was hardly in the same class even ...

or maglev, feels like science fiction come to life¹. Using powerful electromagnetic fields, these vehicles float above the ...

Thankfully, there are existing alternatives to the Maglev project that are already operation — the Maryland Area Regional Commuter train (MARC), Amtrak and the D.C. subway system, known as Metro.

Maglev technology enables such high speeds using superconducting magnets that levitate the train about 10 centimeters above the tracks and push it forward. The new bullet train will travel from ...

The company had promised a new era of high speed travel, using magnetic levitation (maglev) technology - which is already used in some transport systems - within a vacuum tube. This would reduce ...

She says the technology has already been proven and dismisses my suggestion that people might be cautious about climbing aboard. "The Hyperloop is a maglev train in a vacuum tube," she explains.

Magnetic levitation has not quite revolutionized the world of transit the way some of us might have hoped. It has, however, proven useful to [mrdiytechmagic], who has put the technology to grand ...

But the technology to bring it all together commercially was only recently fine-tuned, namely magnetic levitation, or maglev. Maglev is basically what allows a hyperloop to go incredibly fast ...
