Japan's SCMaglev reached 603 km/h, showcasing how magnetic levitation could redefine long-distance rail travel.

Move aside Hyperloop, you were obsolete before the idea was ever dreamed up. Magnetic levitation trains are infinitely cooler, and significantly less expensive to produce as they don't have to ride ...

Magnetic levitation, or maglev, technology has been around since the 1940s, but it's only now coming into focus as a means of high-speed transit. There are several maglev train systems spread ...

Floating trains have glided closer to Europe after a pioneering trial of magnetic levitation — aka maglev. Italian firm IronLev, which developed the tech, claims to have completed the first-ever ...

China has started the construction of a test line in China’s Shanxi Province to handle maglev trains operating at speeds of up to 1,000km/h. To mark the official launch of the maglev test line, a ...

Maglev bullet trains promise a future where steel wheels and clattering rails give way to smooth, floating speed. Yet the reality on today’s tracks is more nuanced, with some systems gliding entirely ...
