How does a maglev work? Maglevs float over a guide way using the basic principle of magnets to replace an old steel wheel and track trains.

  3. What countries use maglev trains? • There are currently 4 countries using maglev trains; • Shanghai • China • Aichi • Japan How are maglev tracks built? It clasps onto the plat form. The track doesn’t bump, it glides along the track.

  4. What speeds can the train travel? They can go to speeds up to 300 miles per hour What is the average amount of passengers on a maglev It depends on how long the train is, how many carriages and the carrying capacity of each carriage

  5. How are maglev trains designed and shaped They do not have an engine. Maglevs uses repelling force of magnets to move. There are 2 tracks, 1: high-speed 2: low speed Where are these train being considered for use Japan, Germany, U.S, major centers of population

  6. List several pros and cons for use of maglevs PROS: they are faster than average trains, they're quieter and 30% less energy needed. What are some health and safety concern of maglev trains The trains could give off radiation and be harmful to peoples health.

  7. About our train Our train is a nemo themed train. It is based off the Disney movie Finding Nemo. Our train is appealing to families with kids because it is a child's movie. We have a fun and unique design. It goes very fast and is efficient.
