WOW
That is fast.
Do not know about the speed but it is close to 600 kms / hour and the record is help by the Japanese bullet trains (they are electromagnetically levitated).
The Japanese magnetic levitation train – Maglev – clocked 581Km/hr (361mph) in 2003.
Call me a moron, but I’d guess the answers are 357.2 mph and France…….
This is a little like asking, “What do you do when the lights go down?” I turn on the lights.
Indeed, it is the Maglev in Japan that was 4mph faster than the French train. I guess the Japanese gals are a bit more petite.
The Maglev and it’s from Shanghai not from Japan
The main difference is that the Maglev is only a prototype (but an impressive one).
The french train (TGV) is an upgraded version of the normal model, running on a regular track. So, in a sense it’s closer to the economical reality…
