    to the surplus of vehicles on the roads. In our city, roads will be replaced by Maglev tracks, and pedestrians will be able to walk across them safely.

    gains immense friction and may become hot. This drag is common among cars and other ground transportation. Engineers have looked to the future to solve this drag. MAGLEV trains are levitating trains that use magnets for propulsion. This way friction drag is eliminated, yet air resistance is still a factor. To cut down on air resistance, MAGLEV trains incorporate aerodynamic principles such as a slim line body to cut through air, that way the force of air is evenly distributed around the body. Drag also

    France has the fastest tested time for a non-maglev, steel-wheeled train, at 574 km/h. It is a matter of history that H Neuvon, who was a member of the Japanese delegation (1960) visiting France about the 25kV overhead traction system and played an important role in the first Shinkansen, was closely

    decrease due to the various sensors to guide the trains on the road. It will make commuting and travel more efficient because the units can detach and going different directions. Another resource scientist might use is magnetic levitation(maglev). To create a maglev at high speeds of travel, the train needs to run off of electro-magnetism. Also the train need a strong enough force and large enough electrical power
