Over the last two hundred years, trains have used steam, diesel, and electricity as fuel for propulsion. Now alternative power sources are being developed, and Japan's Maglev train is an example of this.
The incredible speed of the Maglev is due to powerful magnets installed in the rails. The magnetic force repels the train and so lifts it above the rails. Another set of magnets pushes the train forward. As the train is not in contact with the rails, there is no friction, and the result is speeds of up to 600 kilometers per hour. Although these trains can reach amazing speeds, they are almost silent, therefore reducing noise pollution. They can also stop in a surprisingly short distance.
