China develops a maglev train running at a speed of 200 km per hour

Beijing, July 21, 2021,

China has launched the world's fastest running train with a speed of 200 km per hour. Thus Japanese trains were known for maximum speeds per hour but China has now overtaken Japan as well. The train, built in a factory in the coastal city of Qingdao, has become the fastest moving vehicle in the world. The train uses electromagnetic force. There is no contact between the wheels and the tracks of the train. However, this technique is not new. As for China, it has had limited use for years. Shanghai has a maglev line in a town.

Where trains run by this technique are used. There are no maglev lines between Chinese cities or other provinces. However, China has made great strides in terms of high-speed trains. Work is now underway to make the Maglev trains more long-distance. Cities like Shanghai and Chengdu are included in the project. It will then take about an hour and a half to cover the distance of one thousand km from Beijing to Shanghai. Surprisingly, the flight takes three and a half hours.

Following the example of China's high-speed trains, many countries have tried to improve their infrastructure. In addition to Japan, Germany is also considering building a maglev network. Although the Maglev project is extremely expensive, completing this technique is a challenge for every country. India also has a bullet train project in collaboration with Japan. Plans to run a bullet train between Ahmedabad and Mumbai are currently in the pipeline.
