The first one was actually made before, but all were prototypes and in-complete ones, the concept was first brought up at 1934, the first train that was commercial and used by people was built in 2001, in China =D
There was also one in Germany before that, it was used for testing =O

No the first one that moved people was in 1984 Lol thats what i meant by first one... where ever you get your info is wrong Lmao

the first crash is in 2012
watch, it'll happen

On September 22, 2006 an elevated Transrapid train collided with a maintenance vehicle on a test run in Lathen (Lower Saxony / north-western Germany). Twenty-three people were killed and ten were injured. These were the first fatalities resulting from a Maglev train accident.

wtf was with a maintance vehicle on the tracks when they where testing. bad communication there I bet.

The accident was caused by human error with the first train being allowed to leave the station before the maintenance vehicle had moved off the track. This situation is avoided in a production environment by installing an automatic collision avoidance system.

not including testing shit DX

Yes, but he didn't ask about fires he said crash

maglev will tell physics to go fuck themselves and have a head on collision with eachother

Would be pretty awesome to see that in SLOW motion

fix'd

then just use freight trains
best if carrying fireworks or explosives
