Japan has begun construction of the first commercial line for super-high-speed trains on a magnetic pillow.
Trains on a new line will use magnetic levitation technology - the magnetic field allows train to soar above a line and due to it to move much faster than a usual train.

Now in the world operates one such passenger magnetic-levitation railway line. It is located in Shanghai and stretches out for 30,5 kilometers. The train goes on it with speed of 430 kilometers per hour.

The length of a new Japanese line will make 290 kilometers, and according to experts’ calculations, trains with the linear electric motor will make about 500 kilometers per hour.

Railway company Central Japan Railway Co which will do the work and will spend for the project about 45 billion dollars.
