There is a low speed maglev train in Nagoya Japan called the Linimo, as well as a high-speed maglev train called the Shanghai Transrapid which links Shanghai International Airport and a transit station in Shanghai, China. There are also experimental maglev test lines in Daejeon, South Korea; Yamanashi, Japan; and Power Springs, Georgia, United States. A test facility in Emsland, Germany also just recently closed.
The maximum speed of a Maglev (magnetic levitation) train on a test track in japan was 581km/h. In Shanghai, a Maglev train routinely runs to the airport at 431km/h.
Maglev by far, based in shanghai china
It's in China! Basically it' s a maglev train going up to 431 km/h in service and hitting 501 km/h on tests! It's a 30.5 km line between Shanghai and Shanghai airport. ;)
You can travel on a maglev train in a few countries, notably in Japan and China. Japan's Shinkansen, specifically the Chuo Shinkansen line, features maglev technology and connects Tokyo to Nagoya. In China, the Shanghai Maglev Train operates between Shanghai Pudong International Airport and the city center, showcasing the technology's speed and efficiency. Other countries are exploring maglev systems, but these are the most prominent operational examples.
The Chinese city of Shanghai is reported to have a Maglev train in commercial use. The Japanese and Germans are working on Maglevs so are the USA.
There are several bullet train services in China. One of them is the Maglev, between Shanghai Pudong Airport and the Metro system.

maglev is short for Magnetic Levitation.
The fastest train of the world operates in Shanghai, China. It's called the 'Shanghai Maglev' and have a maximum operational speed of 430km/h and regularly operates at an average speed of 251km/h.
As of October 2023, countries that operate maglev trains include Japan, with its famous Shinkansen maglev line, and China, which has the Shanghai Maglev Train and several other projects under development. South Korea has also developed a maglev train system, and Germany pioneered the technology with the Transrapid project. Other countries, such as the United States, have proposed maglev projects but have not yet implemented operational systems.
Japan is one of the leading countries that utilizes maglev (magnetic levitation) transport, particularly known for its Shinkansen maglev train, which operates between Tokyo and Nagoya. China also employs maglev technology, notably in the Shanghai Maglev Train, which connects the city to its airport. Other countries, like Germany, have experimented with maglev systems, but Japan and China are the most prominent users of this technology for commercial transport.
