A maglev train is a system of transportation that uses magnetic
levitation to suspend, guide, and propel vehicles with magnets
rather than using mechanical methods. Maglevs float over a guide
way using the basic principle of magnets to replace an old steel
wheel and track trains.
Slide 4
There are currently 4 countries using maglev trains; Shanghai
China Aichi Japan It clasps onto the plat form. The track doesnt
bump, it glides along the track.
Slide 5
They can go to speeds up to 300 miles per hour It depends on
how long the train is, how many carriages and the carrying capacity
of each carriage
Slide 6
They do not have an engine. Maglevs uses repelling force of
magnets to move. There are 2 tracks, 1: high-speed 2: low speed
Japan, Germany, U.S, major centers of population
Slide 7
PROS: they are faster than average trains, they're quieter and
30% less energy needed. The trains could give off radiation and be
harmful to peoples health.
Slide 8
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.
