There was also one in Germany before that, it was used for testing =O

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.

They also had electric cars, until gas companies went crazy on us from not buying from them. :(

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.
