Some maglev trains do incorporate wheels and function like linear motor-propelled wheeled vehicles at slower speeds but levitate at higher speeds. This is typically the case with electrodynamic suspension maglev trains. Aerodynamic factors may also play a role in the levitation of such trains. MLX01 Maglev train superconducting magnet bogie
An L0 Series trainset, holding the non-conventional train world speed record of 603 km/h (375 mph) TGV 4402 (operation V150) reaching 574.8 km/h (357 mph). The world record for a conventional wheeled passenger train is held by a modified French TGV high-speed (with standard equipment) code named V150, set in 2007 when it reached 574.8 km/h (357.2 mph) on a 140 km (87 mi) section of track.
