New Chinese magnetic levitation train ‘is faster than going by plane’

Posted by in category: transportation

A bullet train which ‘floats’ above the tracks using magnetic levitation could soon hit 373mph in China — making it faster than travelling by plane.

A prototype body of the science fiction vehicle was shown off in the eastern Chinese city of Qingdao this week.

The machine, designed by China’s China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation (CRRC), is slated to go into production in 2021.
