With Japanese National Railways' 7-km maglev test track due to be completed later this year, and Japan Air Lines' HSST linear induction test car likely to attempt 300 km/h during the summer, the development outlook for magnetically-levitated transport in Japan remains bright. Work on the Ministry of Transport sponsored project for a small linear-motor powered vehicle for rapid transit use also continues.
