Japan is currently developing the world’s fastest train, the L0 Series, which is a Japanese maglev train being produced and tested by the Central Japan Railway Company (JR Central).

This train is expected to be able to reach speeds of up to 603.5kmh, far surpassing the only commercial maglev train in the world at the moment, China’s Shanghai Maglev, which goes up to 460.2kmh. In contrast, Europe’s fastest trains, the French TGV and the Italian AGV Italo, have top operational speeds of between 306-354kmh.
