It's a bit novel, really. You'd get bored of it really quickly. If you was to build a true maglev train track now that would be cool.

Maglervtrains aren't that impossible to produce, only the one they are demonstrating is, as you'd need to keep the magnets superconducting. Which means that they'll have to be truely cold. (I think it was around -160 before the metal that has the highest superconductivity temperature starts to superconduct.)


When I said "true" maglev train I meant without superconductors. Because doing that full scale would be very impractible. Even a miniture version of a "true" maglev train would be quite difficult.

There are already serveral maglev trains without superconductors. The only problem with them is that it requires quite some power and the tracks are expensive to build.
