This is the Maglev train, the only one of its kind in operation anywhere and the fastest regular commercial train service. See notes for the speed and a wider image. Here's a musical link. HFF and have a great weekend, everyone. CORRECTION: I have now found that other maglevs have begun operations - but at much lower speeds. Explored.

The Maglev has been tested to over 500 km/hr, but in normal service this is the maximum cruising speed. It covers the 30km trip to the airport (something like an hour in a taxi) in 7min 21 sec!
