    So a French maglev train has set the world speed record at 574 km/h

    360 mph to Americans



    Edit: Wow it's a wheeled train. The maglev record is 581 by (suprise) Japan.

    It would be disastrous if that train derailed.

        I would not ride on that thing.
        A total chicken for trains that go that fast.
        Sue me.
        Asphyxiated Monophysitism is friends with Lamaism which is short for Mithraism that occasionally sleeps with Orphism who is the incestual twin brother of Pentecostalism.

          Japan is the only place with a commercial maglev train I believe. The company is out of Germany though. Very fast for a railed train.

            Nonetheless, that is ****ing fast. (c-c-censor)

            It's, like, 2/3 the speed of a Boeing 747.

              Yeah. You just don't care what people think right?

              Sue me.

              On topic though. That clip of the train going under the bridge was like
              NEEEEEOOOOOWWWN.

              Awesome.

              Would be really bad if a cow got on the rails. They should make the shape of the front end of the train a ramp or shunt or something. Record breaking cow flips like.

                That would be hilarious.

                  I've walked backwards faster than that. Still pretty good for a train though.
