Till now, the Bala train or Shinkansen run 186 miles per hour and has reached 501 travels.

The Japanese train company, Central Japan Railway, has said that in 2025 the fastest magnetic levitation train of the world will be running and will reach 342 miles per hour.

The first line that reached the speed of 186 miles an hour cost 44.410 millions of dollars.
This project was not only a speed record; it was also a perfect example of ecologic transport as it does not discharge pollutants in the atmosphere.

Although these systems, in theory, can go past 435 miles an hour, it will be a whole experience to reach 342 miles an hour and seeing (or not) the landscape running fast in front of us.
