Transrapid 09 at the Emsland test facility in Lower Saxony, Germany A full trip on the Shanghai Transrapid maglev train Example of low-speed urban maglev system, Linimo. Maglev (derived from magnetic levitation) is a system of rail transport whose rolling stock is levitated by electromagnets rather than rolled on wheels, eliminating rolling resistance.
A similar model caught fire at the Kyushu Test Track in 1979, leading to a redesign of the MLU series vehicles MLU001's superconducting magnet and a liquid helium tank on top of it JR–Maglev MLX01-1 at SCMaglev and Railway Park, Nagoya, April 2013 MLX01-3 preserved at the RTRI facility in Kokubunji, Tokyo, October 2015
The super-speed Transrapid maglev system has no wheels, no axles, no gear transmissions, no steel rails, and no overhead electrical pantographs.The maglev vehicles do not roll on wheels; rather, they hover above the track guideway, using the attractive magnetic force between two linear arrays of electromagnetic coils—one side of the coil on the vehicle, the other side in the track guideway ...
Ecobee was developed in 2006 as an advanced version of the UTM-02 to create a vehicle that could be operated by metropolitan city-level local governments. [1]On December 21, 2006, the Ministry of Construction and Transportation signed an agreement with the Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials for a maglev train.

Old Dominion University maglev: In 1999, Old Dominion University agreed to work with American Maglev of Atlanta to construct an on-campus student transportation link of less than 1-mile (1.6 km) — using a smart train / dumb track design in which most sensors, magnets, and computation were located on the train rather than the track. [36]
The train is planned to reach 600km/h, which would make it one of the fastest trains in the world. [8] Testing of a 2019 prototype maglev EMU began in 2020 on a 1.5km test track at Tongji University in Shanghai, [8] with testing continuing in 2021. Testing the train to its maximum speed would require extension of the test track, as maglev ...
' Shanghai Maglev Demonstration Operation Line ') is a magnetic levitation train (maglev) line that operates in Shanghai, China. The line uses the German Transrapid technology. [ 2 ] The Shanghai maglev is the world's first commercial high-speed maglev and has a maximum cruising speed of 300 km/h (186 mph). [ 3 ]
