Magnetically levitated ground transportation, or Maglev, is an advanced mode of surface high speed transportation whereby a vehicle gliding above a guideway is suspended, guided, and propelled by magnetic forces. Can you imagine a train that that actually floats in air 4 to 6 inches in the air and travels up to 300 mph.
Maglev operating costs will be only 3 cents per passenger mile and 7 cents per ton mile, compared to 15 cents per passenger mile for airplanes, and 30 cents per ton mile for intercity trucks.1) Much lower guideway cost$12 million per mile, compared to $40 million to $60 million per mile. (2) Much faster payback times5 years instead of 50, by carrying piggyback trucks. (3) Electronic switching of vehicles at high speeds from the main guideway to off-line stations for loading and unloading.
