Anyway, boring at first, but if you will FF untill 3:54 or so, untill 4:15 I think, you can see some high-speed (500 kmh) passing bys.. very cool!

yeah, thanks for the link

That's certainly impressive speed, but I think I'd still prefer the Veyron. I have a sneaking suspicion the train wouldn't handle very well :P

The page sais "Google video is not yet available in your country." :(

no moreinteresting then the TRV??? (the high speed train in europe)
sure its fast... but being able to (slowly :lol:) turn left and right myself

hah.. awesome post. I always knew of these maglev trains but didnt actually know if they were in use.

a Veyron could probably out accellerate it to 200mph but obviously would stop at 250 where the train has another 50mph to reach..

Those outside shots are pretty cool. I've been on the Chinese version from Shanghai to Pudong airport, whilst I was there summer 2004. Was 'only' 430 kph, but still rather impressive. Much more bumpy than you would think.

wow, fabulous vid :shock:
I wonder if we'll have something like this here in Europe in the near future :lol:

thnx dude

not TGV ? just googled fastest trains

"Fastest Conventional Train 515.3 km/h (322 mph) France, TGV-A set 325. 18 May 1990"

Could you please post a link outside google, when we (people in coutries where google vids are unavailable :( ) can watch it.

thanks.

I Doubt there'd be any train-dodgers for that one :wink:
