310mph train...due in 14 years
World's fastest ... magnetic L0
TRAINSPOTTERS attempt the impossible yesterday — a glimpse of the world’s fastest passenger service as it hits 310mph.
The prototype L0 has a snub “nose” and uses magnets to float above the rail.
It will cut the 90min journey from Tokyo to Nagoya to 40min for 1,000 passengers.
But fans gathered for this test run in Tsuru must wait to ride it — the L0 does not come into service until 2027.
China’s CRH380A was the world’s fastest train at 302mph.
