Like any maglev, this small requires special track that goes round and slightly raised, allowing you to earn a higher rate than ordinary trains as it has no friction with the tracks.
The train will have seating for 846 passengers in total and is divided into 14 sections. It is estimated to be used fresh start in 2027.
