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 ...

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 ...

I just don’t understand the logic of those who are opposing the possibility of a maglev train here in Maryland (“Why Maryland’s maglev dream doesn’t track,” April 21). A majority of people don’t know ...

China's push for high-speed transportation has taken a major leap forward with its experimental T-Flight maglev train. Designed to reach record-breaking speeds, this levitating train could ...

The construction of what is intended to be the world’s fastest train, the Chuo Shinkansen Maglev, which is intended to link Tokyo to Nagoya, with a potential future extension to Osaka, is currently ...

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 ...

Federal officials cancelled $26 million in grants that would have funded a proposed high-speed train project between Baltimore and Washington, D.C. According to U.S. Department of Transportation ...

Shunsuke Niwa, president of Central Japan Railway Co., or JR Tokai, has stressed that the company will continue promoting the construction of the Chuo Shinkansen high-speed magnetic levitation train ...

At a test facility run by the National University of Defence Technology in China, researchers recently sent a one-tonne maglev vehicle racing to 700 km/h on a 400-metre track. The short run has set a ...

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 ...
