China unveils 600 kph Maglev train - state media

BEIJING: China unveiled a Maglev train capable of a top speed of 600 kph on Tuesday, state media said.

The maximum speed would make the train, self-developed by China and manufactured in the coastal city of Qingdao, the fastest ground vehicle globally. Using electro-magnetic force, the Maglev train "levitates" above the track with no contact between body and rail.
