The T-Flight is a maglev train that hit a record-breaking speed of 387 mph on a short test track — but engineers want to double that rate so the train can carry passengers at speeds faster than if they were traveling by plane.
I can't imagine this stuff will see operation in the near future, but there's so much that you learn from even just trying to build something like this that will be applicable in a lot of other areas. Big ambitious projects are traditionally really good for pushing the technological envelope.
