Riding the Mag Lev




We rode the Mag-Lev High Speed Train to the Airport. 431 Kilometers per hour (267 Miles Per Hour)

Zoom!!!

No seat belts. As we sped through 300 KMH, it occured to me to worry about what kept the thing on the tracks. Too Late!!! Fortunately it stayed on the tracks.


The entire ride took 7 minutes. The train accelerated for several minutes, then maintained speed for a short time, then began to slow down.
