Federal officials cancelled $26 million in grants that would have funded a proposed high-speed train project between Baltimore and Washington, D.C. According to U.S. Department of Transportation ...
China has successfully tested a magnetic levitation (Maglev) technology which could see trains travel faster than most planes. The most recent test, demonstrated at Donghu Laboratory in Hubei Province ...
I disagree with the recent commentary by Angelette C. Aviles opposing the proposed Northeast Maglev high-speed train (“Why Maryland’s maglev dream doesn’t track,” April 21). I respect her perspective, ...
Something to look forward to: The risk of generating dangerous shockwaves when exiting tunnels has long challenged high-speed rail systems. As maglev trains reach higher speeds, the problem becomes ...
The federal government is pulling the plug after decades of grant spending and permit studies for a proposed 26.6-mile high-speed magnetic rail project between Baltimore and Washington, D.C., ...

China is pushing the boundaries of high-speed rail technology with its ambitious development of maglev trains that could revolutionize travel within the country. Passengers in China could soon stream ...
Researchers in China have researched a solution to one of the largest issues facing magnetic levitation (maglev) trains. Chinese engineers have developed porous buffers that fit into tunnel mouths to ...
The current fastest operational train in the world, the Shanghai Maglev, can hit speeds of around 286 miles per hour. While that is incredibly fast, it may be put to shame by another maglev train in ...
The president of Central Japan Railway Co. (JR Tokai) announced on March 29 that the Linear Chuo Shinkansen Line will not ...
As China builds out the next generation of magnetic levitation trains, the U.S. has a grand total of one maglev line in development. Or, make that had one in development, because Transportation ...
