China has just revealed details about its innovative Maglev high -speed train. It can reach a speed of over 600 km/ha is as fast as the Boeing 737.
Novelty, developed by society China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation (CRRC) was announced during the 17th International Exhibition of Modern Railway Technology and Facilities in China.
The prototype of the hyperloop named T-Flight He was able to reach up to 623 km/ha from 0 to 600 km/h in just 7 seconds.
While the Chinese model has already exceeded the previous record holder, Japanese MLX01 MaglevChina said that the goal is to achieve over 1000 km/HS with the T-Flight model for future tests.
The stunning speed of Maglev trains is perhaps due to magnetic levitation, when the opposite magnetic field causes the train to literally “swim” above the rails.
This technology helps to reduce friction between the train and the rails and also reduces the air resistance in the vacuum pipes, allowing the train to reach higher than the aircraft.
The technology should be used in a hyperloop corridor that could be completed in 2035 if the plans are successful. Thanks to him, passengers could get on Maglev in Shanghai and in just nine minutes arrive at Hangzhou 150 km away.
China, however, still faces some challenges in the implementation of technology. According to experts, it will be necessary to overcome technical and economic obstacles to build an infrastructure for such a railway innovation.

China unveils a 600 km/h (373 mph) maglev train—now the world’s fastest.
It can slash Beijing–Shanghai travel time to just 2.5 hours. Powered by magnetic levitation, it’s ultra-quiet, efficient and emits zero direct pollution.pic.twitter.com/nExwHbTDCn
