People fly in planes at around 500 miles per hour, so... And the maglev train in full operation in Shanghai seems to be working well.

It is fast changes of speed that are hard to take. Willeke

english Ex Member	Re: Beat This Slinging Location Reply #33 - Jun 14^th, 2006 at 1:22pm That's true. The main reason these trains are not being built in vast numbers is because they cost so much - about £8,000,000 per mile of track, or something similar.
