Jinan-made ‘electromagnetic sled’ sets world record
An ultrahigh-speed test device for electromagnetic propulsion – the “electromagnetic sled” – recently set a world record in Jinan, Shandong province. The device can propel an object weighing one metric ton or above at a speed of 1,030 kilometers per hour.
Chinese T-Flight successfully tests hyperloop technology
Chinese researchers have successfully carried out a systematic test on a cutting-edge transportation system involving a high-speed maglev train running in a low vacuum pipeline in North China.
Construction to start on test line for 1,000 km/h maglev train in North China
Construction will start on the test line for a low-vacuum maglev high-speed train with a speed of up to 1,000 kilometers per hour in Datong, North China’s Shanxi Province, as preparation work is done, the local government said.
China debuts the world’s first high-temp maglev prototype

China develops super railway with test speed of 1,500 km/h
China is developing a super high-speed rail system that could reach speeds of up to 1,500 kilometers an hour, a move China is making to compete with Elon Musk’s Hyperloop, an expert said.
China takes on Hyperloop with 1000 km/h ‘super maglev’ train
Researchers at China’s Southwest Jiaotong University recently built a prototype for a “super maglev,” a track that carries a train at incredibly high speed using magnetic levitation (maglev). What makes it so super? According to the researchers it’ll be capable of supporting speeds up to 1000 km/h (600 MPH).
