Abstract :
The successful construction and operation of the Shanghai high speed maglev Transrapid line and the Nagoya low speed Tobu Kyuryo maglev HSST line indicate that the maglev has already entered the transportation development stage. The related progress for transportation development in China is shortly described, including its foundation, long distance, and intercity and urban application
