The world's first commercial high-speed magnetically levitated train was implemented in Shanghai China in 2004. The line runs between Shanghai's Pudong Airport and the Longyang Lu metro station (Metro Line #2).

This amazing train runs at a top speed of 431 km per hour (270 MPH). The 30 km (18.75 mile) journey takes less than 8 minutes to complete. During a test run on November 12, 2003, the Maglev vehicle achieved a Chinese record speed of 501 km/h (311 mph).
