Three magnetic levitation high speed mass transportation systems, which are under development and in the prototype vehicle demonstration stage, are discussed. One is in the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) and the two is in Japan. The West German approach is based on the electromagnetic levitation (EML) concept. One of the Japanese systems is also based on the EML concept; the other is based on the conductive electrodynamic levitation (EDL) concept. Also included is an outline of a high-speed transportation strategy for North America, which is needed to supplement the airline hub concept and personal automobile expressway systems currently in place.
