Shanghai MAGLEV TRAIN REVIEW - The FASTEST Train in the WORLD at 431km/h (268mph) | Shanghai, China

Science | Interesting | How it works on Instagram: "Japan’s L0 Series maglev train holds the world record for the fastest manned train, reaching an incredible 603 km/h (375 mph) during a test run on the Yamanashi Maglev Test Line. Powered by superconducting magnetic levitation, the train glides above the tracks without touching them, dramatically reducing friction and allowing for extreme speeds. While its record-breaking run showcased the future of high-speed rail, the train is expected to oper

NextShark on Instagram: "Japan’s Shinkasen Maglev: The Fastest Train in the World 🚄⁠ ⁠ The SC Maglev is Japan’s groundbreaking superconducting magnetic levitation train, developed in the 1970s by Central Japan Railway Company and the Railway Technical Research Institute.⁠ ⁠ Unlike traditional trains, maglev technology uses powerful magnets to lift the train about 4 inches above the track, eliminating friction. Once it hits 150 km/h (93 mph), it begins to float — allowing speeds no wheel-based t
