A maglev train (a combination of magnetic and levitation) is a type of train that does not use wheels like traditional trains but rather, by using magnets, is able to levitate off a track while simultaneously being propelled forward. By eliminating contact with rails, a maglev train reduces its friction and therefore allows it to move at extremely high speeds, covering long distances in a fraction of the time it takes a traditional train. As of 2027, there is a maglev line between Panama City and Costa Rica. During 2029, Prague uses maglev trains at their Růžička Station.

  • They are found in and around major population centers where such transportation is practical. MagLev trains consist of high speed trains traveling along electrified, magnetized tracks that are elevated and run throughout cities and colonies. The trains call at numerous stations throughout the network, allowing the loading and unloading of goods and allowing passengers to board and alight from the train.

  • They are found in and around major population centers where such transportation is practical. MagLev trains consist of high speed trains traveling along electrified, magnetized tracks that are elevated and run throughout cities and colonies. The trains call at numerous stations throughout the network, allowing the loading and unloading of goods and allowing passengers to board and alight from the train. Some trains, however, are equipped to haul freight, not people, and thus some MagLev networks are built in low population areas, allowing for quick transportation to and from various destinations.
