What simple machine can load railroad cars?
In the beginning the train cars were loaded by hand. Today's trains are loaded with fork lift trucks.
How much does an entire train weigh?
The weight of a train varies between systems. How many cars in a given train? Also, the cars even in a single train can easily be different models or styles and can vary in weight. Lets just pick some rolling stock, shall we? In the instance of the NYC system, the R143 cars weigh about 85,200 pounds, or about 38,600 kilograms. Trains usually run from 8 to 11 cars. The math is simple, but (risking repetition) deciding what system, what cars are running on a given train and how many of them will cause a lot of variation if you crunch the numbers. A couple of links are provided below so you can poke around a bit. If we take a 10-car NYC Subway train with just that one car type (R143), that makes for an 852,000-pound train. That's 426 tons of train rolling down the trackway.

Write short note on maglev trains?
Maglev (short for magnetic levitation) trains are trains utilizing [electro]magnetism and superconductors to float train cars that would not require the use of traditional rails which are a source of friction in many current generation high-speed railcars.
How many passengers does the shanghai maglev train carry?
40 *Correction - Each maglev train is unique and may include any number of cars in its consist, but typically a relatively small number simply due to platform lengths and power limitations. So this number may range from 2 to as high as 20, but expect 2 to 8 cars depending on the system.
What is principle of maglev train?
Magnetic levitation is the method used for maglev trains. In order to levitate a train, superconducting magnetic coils are used to completely expel the magnetic fields which will cause the trains to fly off its track.
Which cars do not have wheels?
Maglev, trains in japan and Germany that ride(float) by magnetic levitation.
