Which cities in China have maglev trains?

At present, there are only two demonstration lines of maglev train in the world-Shanghai maglev train runs from Longyang Road Station in Pudong to Pudong International Airport, which takes only 8 minutes for more than 30 kilometers. Shanghai maglev train line starts from Longyang Road Station of Shanghai Metro Line 2 in the west and ends at Shanghai Pudong International Airport in the east, with a total length of 29.863 kilometers, which is jointly developed by China and Germany.

On May 201April 6, Changsha Maglev Project, the first medium-and low-speed maglev transportation line with independent intellectual property rights in China, was officially started. When Line 2065438 is completed and opened to traffic in the first half of 2006, China will become the second country in the world with this advanced rail transit operation technology.

Extended data:

1. Brief introduction of maglev train:

Maglev train is a modern high-tech rail transit vehicle, which realizes non-contact suspension and guidance between the train and the track by electromagnetic force, and then draws the train by electromagnetic force generated by linear motor.

1922, German engineer Herman Qiang put forward the principle of electromagnetic levitation, and then applied for a patent. Since 1970s, with the strengthening of the economic strength of industrialized countries, Germany, Japan, the United States and other countries have successively carried out research and development of magnetic levitation transportation systems to improve their transportation capacity and meet the needs of their own economic development and people's lives. ?

China:

1) China's first maglev train (purchased from Germany) started running on the Shanghai maglev line in June 2003. 20 15 10 Changsha maglev line, the first domestic maglev line in China, was successfully put into trial operation.

2) On May 6, 2006, Changsha Maglev Express Line, China's first demonstration line of medium and low speed maglev commercial operation with completely independent intellectual property rights, was put into trial operation. This line is also the longest medium and low speed maglev operation line in the world. 2065438+June 2008, the first commercial maglev version 2.0 train in China rolled off the assembly line at CRRC Zhuji Electric Locomotive Co., Ltd.

Second, the development status:

At present, the countries that study maglev trains in the world mainly include Germany, Japan, Britain, Canada, the United States, the former Soviet Union and China. The United States and the former Soviet Union gave up their research plans in the 1970s and 1980s respectively, but the United States recently started research plans again. Britain began to study maglev train from 1973, but it was one of the first countries to put maglev train into commercial operation.

1In April, 1984, the 600-meter-long maglev transportation system between Birmingham Airport and the railway station was officially put into operation, and it took only 90 seconds for passengers to take the maglev train from the airport to the railway station. However, it was stopped after 1995, running for 1 1 year. At present, the most mature research on maglev train is Germany and Japan.
