The maglev train was tested on a 400 metre (1,310-foot) magnetic levitation (maglev) test line, and safely brought to a stop afterwards.

Chinese scientists set a new world record as a superconducting maglev train reached 700 km/h in just two seconds, highlighting future potential for ultra-fast travel.

The train floats above the track using superconducting magnets that lift it and push it forward without actually touching the rails.

Researchers at China's National University of Defense Technology (NUDT) have accelerated a one-ton vehicle from a dead stop to 435 mph (700 km/h) in under two seconds – then back to zero mph on about ...

BEIJING - China unveiled a maglev train capable of a top speed of 600 kph on Tuesday, state media said. The maximum speed ...

China has set a global record by accelerating a ton-scale test vehicle to 700 kilometers per hour in just two seconds, marking the fastest performance of a superconducting electrodynamic suspension ...

China is moving closer to operating what may become the world’s fastest high-speed train. According to the Ministry of Transport, the CR450 prototypes have achieved test speeds of 450 kilometers per ...
