With standard superconductors, yes.

2017-03-16 00:45:24 UTC  

It can work without superconductors though. Ordinary magnets work just fine.

2017-03-16 00:45:46 UTC  

The typical method is strong, permanent magnets on the train itself, and the track being electromagnets.

2017-03-16 00:46:03 UTC  

Trains built that way work very well.

2017-03-16 00:47:17 UTC  

Speeding it up and slowing it down is done by the electromagnets in the track. They alternate current to switch between pushing and pulling.

2017-03-16 00:47:49 UTC  

Superconductors are only really sensible for smaller scale stuff and until we find better ones, would never work for anything full scale.

AWESOME

2017-03-16 01:01:51 UTC  

my inner child is screaming

2017-03-16 01:05:18 UTC  

nvm lol

2017-03-16 01:06:05 UTC  

for some reason i thought you can order a trainset simlar to that

2017-03-16 01:15:31 UTC  

its what im staring at atm

2017-03-16 01:19:12 UTC  

You can order model maglev trains.

2017-03-16 01:19:26 UTC  

But the ones you can order are not like that. they are usually terrible.

2017-03-16 01:19:34 UTC  

You'd get much better results just making your own.

2017-03-16 01:19:51 UTC  

That's how I won first place at my eighth grade science fair.

mr bones pays no attention to daniel; rather he has only a faint sense of his companionship/coexistence with him. who he's really looking at is you. you, the viewer. mr bones looks straight through you. he knows what you're thinking. silly, right? these poorly animated children- but really mr bones knows in the universe we are just like that poorly animated, existentially confused black child at heart. don't believe me? believe in yourself. after all, mr bones is inside of you
