Inside | History | HQ on Instagram: "Japan’s L0 Series maglev train officially holds the world record for the fastest manned train, achieving a top speed of 603 km/h (375 mph). This feat was accomplished on the Yamanashi Maglev Test Line using superconducting magnetic levitation technology, which allows the train to float above the tracks to eliminate friction. Follow @InsidehistoryHQ for more. When the Tokyo–Nagoya line begins service, the train is expected to maintain a cruising speed of rough

Maglev Acceleration Redefines Ground Transportation China has set a new global speed benchmark after a next-generation maglev train accelerated to 435 mph (700 km/h) in under 2 seconds during testing. The feat highlights not just top speed—but unprecedented acceleration capability. Such performance could enable ultra-fast intercity travel, rivaling aircraft on short and medium routes. Important Details: • Top speed reached: 435 mph • Acceleration achieved in under 2 seconds • Magnetic levitation

𝗭𝗼𝗿𝗼 🌲 on Instagram: "Japan's fastest train is the experimental SCMAGLEV (L0 Series), a maglev (magnetic levitation) train that set a world record of 603 km/h (375 mph) during test runs. Although it holds the speed record, it is expected to operate commercially at speeds of up to 500 km/h (311 mph) on the future Chūō Shinkansen line, which will connect Tokyo and Osaka. Among the currently operating conventional bullet trains, the Hayabusa (E5 Series) on the Tōhoku Shinkansen is one of the f
