00:03Indonesia currently has the Shanghai Beglev recorded as the fastest train in the world.
00:09So fast, this train can cover a distance of 30 km in just 8 minutes.
00:16Here is the information for you.
00:20If WUS, Indonesia's fastest AFI train can travel at speeds of up to 350 km per hour.
00:29So this train is much faster.
00:35No kidding, this train called the Shanghai Beglev in China can go up to 460 km per hour.
00:46This is what makes the Shanghai Beglev the fastest train in the world today.
00:56Beglev itself is an abbreviation of Magnetic Levitation,
01:01where this train uses electromagnetic force to make it float above the rails.
01:07The friction between the wheels and the rails makes the Shanghai Beglev capable of traveling at very high speeds.
01:15quieter and more energy efficient.
01:19So fast, this train only takes about 8 minutes to cover a distance of 30 km.
01:25In addition, this train can be configured from 2 to 10 cars,
01:32where each carriage can accommodate more than 100 passengers.
