    Fun fact: The Maglev train is a German invention. The concept of the Maglev train was invented by Hermann Kemper in 1934 and the First was tested in the Late 1970‘s and early 1980‘s in Germany

    If Japan built same new straight track with just a handful of stops for N700S series, they would've saved almost as much time as with MagLev. The speed of Shinkansen is mostly reduced by stops, curves and current track is over 150km longer, coz it also connects Yokohama, Shizuoka, Hamamatsu and Kyoto.
    So the reason for short travel time is not really the speed. Nozomi is the fastest (2,5h), coz it takes only 4-5 stops and Kodama is the exact same N700 series, but takes every stop on its way and takes 4 hours to get to the same destination.
    Current tickets are nearly equal to flight, so new MagLev will be surely more than a flight.
    Since Nozomi and Mizuho are not covered by JRpass, I bet a new MagLev will not be either and you'll be extremely lucky just to spot it anywhere. Coz like 90% of the tracks are gonna be underground.
    If track was from Tokyo to at least Fukuoka the speed of MagLev would cut the time in half.
    I wish we had bullet trains throughout the Europe. So many flights could be retired and a way more convenient access.

    Correct me if I am mistaken. Japanese experimental maglev magnets are cooled with liquid helium at -375 to-450ºF, where as Chinese experimental magnets are cooled with liquid nitrogen at much higher temperatures at around -196ºF. Nitrogen has tremendous cost advantage.

      Try use Kelvin or at least compatible Celsius here. The Japanese one as well as most Chinese high-speed maglev work around 4K (-269 Celsius) while one Chinese high-speed maglev prototype works around 77K (-196 Celsius) which may potentially make it 50 times cheaper, but still prototype. Most Chinese (and Korean, Japanese) maglev are low-speed maglev though, which are not superconducting thus doesn't require a very low temperature. Shanghai Transrapid, although being high-speed, still isn't superconducting, as well.

      One figure-eight-shaped coil is located in front of every propulsion coil. It is true, yes, the magnetic fields of both coils interact with one another but they do so in such a way that the relevant magnetic forces do not disappear (i.e. propulsion, levitation, guidance). You may draw the coils and respective magnetic field lines on a piece of paper to see how they overlap. Also, I recommend to have a look at the sources that I have put in the video description.

    Personally, I'm not fond of Japan's technological approach of using a superconducting system. Their system only levitates at speeds in excess of about 100km/h, so it needs conventional rubber wheels up to that point. This adds to the maintenance difficulty and hence cost - something which is avoided in the Transrapid/Chinese system at practically no disadvantages.

      We need an international standard guideway for ISO carriages and container trains and it would be a lot easier if China, Japan and the rest of the world cooperate on this rather than differnt systems in every country.

Due to the huge investment of technology and infrastructure and many invisible problems ( for example the how’s the safety system look like or the life cycle cost), the ticket must be very expensive. It will be a competitor of airline. But how many should a ticket cost? Could it survive between high speed train with 350 km/h and civil aviation with 900 km/h? Will travelers not only don’t pay more (aviation) but also don’t pay less (high speed rail) in order to choose this method?

    Japanese maglev has been proven for export since 2017 Chinese maglev is only experimental and I doubt if I has sufficient clearance to allow 600km/h.
    If Sydney/Canberra is a single tunnel then a Japanese maglev could easily do 1,000km/h with a reduced pressure from the ten launch sites and it would be even cheaper than a surface one that requires buying land, service roads, fences and bridges.

      @@HHTheCity da Sieht man das du keine ahnung hast, denn 6 Entwickler die sehr Maßgebend beim Transrapid beteiligt waren arbeiten bei Maglev ;), es war sogar angedacht das Transrapid Gelände wieder in Betrieb zu nehmen und das vor Jahren ;) aber macht nix. Des Weiteren wurde vor Jahren das was jetzt Maglev macht getestet hier in DE nur es war zu kostspielig um weiter zu forschen.

      @@TheSoliver84 leider haben die Japaner schon 1964 mit ihrer Version des Maglev begonnen. Da du ja auch nicht viel von dem Thema weißt, weißt du auch nicht, dass die japanische Technologie nichts mit dem deutschen Transrapid zutun hat. Bei Wikipedia kannst du dir durchlesen, in welchen Bereichen sie verschieden sind.

    Ignorance video. Please search for Changsha Maglev and China's latest 600km/h Maglev

      While still cool because maglevs are awesome, the Changsha Maglev is not high speed, unlike the Shanghai Maglev.
      And China's 600 kmh maglev prototype is still in its early phases, though it looks very promising.
      However, a successful low speed test run is a far cry from the fully realized L0 series Maglev, which is ready for commercial operation as soon as they finish building the line.
      The L0 series is still currently the gold standard for high speed rail technology.
      So how was the video "ignorant"? It was about the L0 series, not China's maglev developments, which are an equally fascinating but different topic.
