The transportation landscape is experiencing a remarkable shift with the emergence of maglev technology. These magnetic levitation trains hover above their tracks using powerful magnets, eliminating ...

A zero to 60 mph time of just under seven seconds is decent, but not too noteworthy. A zero to 100 mph in the same time would be astounding. But zero to 404 mph? Welcome to the future of trains, as ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Imagine gliding across long distances at nearly 400 miles per hour on a train that floats silently above its tracks. No rattling ...

As the United States struggles to keep its major cities connected by even the most barebones rail systems, China is screaming into the future with the development of a levitating bullet train. Called ...

Researchers in China have researched a solution to one of the largest issues facing magnetic levitation (maglev) trains. Chinese engineers have developed porous buffers that fit into tunnel mouths to ...

In that video, we spoke about many cool things such as superconductivity and electromagnetism, how are they related to Maglev trains, but also the principle of a linear motor thanks to which Maglevs ...

On a short stretch of track in northern China, a heavy block of engineering briefly moved with the urgency of a launched projectile. In a test that prioritised hardware limits over passenger comfort, ...

Germany’s federal railway authority has issued the European country’s first license for public magnetic levitation (maglev) train operation, in a major milestone for the nascent technology’s use.

Something to look forward to: The risk of generating dangerous shockwaves when exiting tunnels has long challenged high-speed rail systems. As maglev trains reach higher speeds, the problem becomes ...
