Like most everything trains can still be improved. Some of the things engineers are doing to improve trains are using magnets to make them float just inches off of a special track. These magnets both repel (lift) the train and cause it to move forward and back wards. Trains with this technology can exceed 300 MPH.

Not just any train can go 300Mph. These modern trains are fitted with sleek outer skins that cut down on air restiance. Also the standard coupling between cars has been replaced with a flexable, stronger joint.
