Rail technologies that push speed beyond conventional trains, using magnetic levitation or vacuum tubes. An entry belongs here when the cited article calls the mode a magnetic levitation or proposed high-speed transport system. It excludes conventional urban and main-line rail. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members.
