Subscribe goo.gl/Y8ZVar
The Shanghai Maglev is the fastest train in the world! The train runs at top speeds of 431 km/h and travels between downtown Shanghai and The Pudong International Airport. The maglev train will whizz you the 31.5 kilometers in just under 8 minutes!!
Shanghai Maglev cost:
Single trip ticket - 50RM
Round trip ticket - 80RM
Single trip ticket VIP - 100RM
Round trip ticket VIP - 160RM
One of the reasons we travelled to Shanghai was actually to ride this train. As we are both train nerds and this was a once in a life experience we decided to pay the extra money and go in VIP because YOLO... Or something like that!

We've had an absolute blast on the High-Speed Trains in China! What other amazing trains around the world should we go on?
600KM/h is coming.
600km/h coming in China
There're new "low-speed" maglev commuter trains running in Beijing and Changsha, and there are more and more lines under construction. They goes "only" 120km/h in the city. Not that fancy, but the benefit to use low-speed maglev in metro system is to reduce noise. Running at 100km/h, they are pretty much as quiet as a regular passenger car.
我每天都要乘坐地铁回家，我感觉很普通。

A famous man from UK said in 1920, "All China needs now is science and technology and they be ahead of the world" and here they are 2020!!!
good word
Eisen J Eisen The future is already here in China, it’s just not evenly distributed, yet 😉
Eisen J Eisen who was that man, please？
@@everytimetheworldsmiles8434 Bertrand Russell. of UK, as he went there to teach them philosophy in 1920.
Eisen J Eisen thank you☕️yes,very very very famous
Girl seems so happy and excited makes me feel the same😂
We're glad you feel that way!
I'm from Shanghai. Welcome to Shanghai. Have a good time
Thats awesome! Thank you! We had a great time!
It’s Siemens’s one so so vibration bad!! This is not actual Maglev train. It’s Just Ordinary Temp Magnet Toy hehe
even today many people still say and their thoughts the Japan is the world faster railway not China
people ：Its actually german technology running at 431 kmh
me ：yeah ，that is the reason why the Chinese are testing 600kmh train tech by themselves because they think 431kmh is so low
Yeah but we have the autobahn and can drive 431kmh on street with a car
Step by step, let the positive voice prevail. The world needs peace, love and cooperation.
Agreed
It’s really impressive to see you guys have replied almost every comments. Good job, positive energy, friendship ambassadors between western world and China. Cheers
Except yours.... odd
Haha we just need time :) Thank you both for your comments
Love how modern this train station looks. Need to visit Shanghai soon. Train looks nice and spacious. Great vlog guys.
It was so great! Thank you!!
欢迎来上海。
its kind of ironic that its 20 years old.
I tried before, sooooo fast, when u look out from window, the whole world outside is curving
It actually has been there for over 15 years. Can't wait for the operation of the new 600 km/h Maglev!
Where?
Yes! That would be SOOOOO flipping amazing. 600km/h will be insane
@@germsspices China of course XD It's under test runs now, it can go max up to 600km however I doubt it will actually run that fast in reality due to regulatory and safety concerns.
@@sqian2004 which part of China tho?
@@germsspices being tested in qingdao, but no idea where it will run in the future
I take this line from PVG to Shanghai every time I back to China. Just to remind myself: I am home again, get used to the speed of my home country. LOL
HahhA that's so cool. It definitely gets you into the mood of China
Welcome to my city.Enjoy your time.Love from Shanghai.
Thank you so much! We had a great time in Shanghai!
As a Chinese. I didn’t know that we have trains that can run 400km/h above 🤣😂
Hahaha. That's gold. So at the moment we're pretty sure this one is the only commercial train that runs over 400km/h. But I suspect in the next 10-15 years there will be many many more
STOP LOOK AND LISTEN
wut
哈哈哈上海磁悬浮啊，很短的一段
I didn't until I travelled on one in Shanghai, the same one as shown on the video. Lovely memories. Very proud of China. Excellent experience.
It operated since 2002, not a new thing.
Still incredible!
@@SallyAndEd Since it's too expensive ╥﹏╥, CN government chose building another kind of HSR and that is current HSR in CN.
@@SallyAndEd Yeah, Im Chinese, just being cocky. Love your videos.
I love you guys so passionate on the adventure
Thanks :) We loved it. Hopefully we'll make back to China in 2020
I love this video! And I love your smiling faces, passion and positive energy! I subscribed to your channel. Wishing you good luck and happiness!
too much energy from both of you'll , rocket part was cute
Haha thank you!
OMG 431Km/h ！ China great great job ！
So crazy isn't it!
Its actually german technology running at 431 kmh...
@@SH-gd2vs yeah.
How come they dont have it running on their land?
Balala Z stupid politicians combined with one accident. The train crashed with a maintenance cart on the tracks, so they shut down the whole program. 20 years of development for nothing.
The new 600km/h one will be set between Shanghai and Hangzhou.
That is going to be so flipping amazing
@@SallyAndEd China never got tired of surprising you .Haha Looking forward for the one time in the life 600km per hour again with VIP carrage hahha
You guys are happy kids Haha
Ok I though they don’t wanna build meglev anymore...
426firefly wow I cannot imagine that 😐 Shanghai has already been the world third largest city after Tokyo and Delhi
Woww , now that is called as an once in a lifetime experience !!!!
Absolutely! It was sooo much fun!
i wish you guies to take the first run of new 600km/h one from shanhai to hanzhou after several years
Yess! That would be a total dream come true
@@SallyAndEd looking forward to that day :-)
Just saw two happy and very positive peoples enjoying high speed train .. love your video
keep up the good work
Thanks! We had a great time!
cute couple
Thank you!
中国很快有自己研发的600公里时速磁悬浮列车！
That is going to be absolutely incredible!
Sally was so thrilled that she talks and acts like a kiddo 😂 I can feel the thrill in both of you. Thanks for the upload, enjoy it really
From Labuan Island of 🇲🇾
Haha she was so excited!!! Thanks for watching! We really enjoyed filming this one!
I always take the Metro from the airport but your enthusiasm for the Maglev may just have encouraged me to try it on my next Pudong Airport run
We got the metro the next morning to the airport because it was too early for the Maglev to be running - it's super convenient - BUT... this was totally worth the experience. Just make sure you travel in the peak times so you get to travel at top speed - 431km/h! It was such a great experience!
Wow!! 431 km/h? someday I really wanted to try. I wish we in Canada could have one... not in a million years. I guess!
Hahaha. Its the same in Australia. There is no way we'll ever get one. Hopefully you'll make it to China or Japan to try one :D
theory of relativity says, the faster you go, the slower your clock, relative to those standing still. so if you live on these trains, you'll actually age slower.
Hahaha thats incredible
The man on the plane would age even slower than you...
That comes out to about a second per year
@@asroma5216 La prima volta che vedo un Romano su questo canale
@@asroma5216 ciao
Ticket to ride on a super train? yes pls!! I hope I can try this myself one day, that's absolutely crazy how quiet it is 😃
It was so good! Incredibly quiet, not busy at all and super fast!
@@SallyAndEd Nice 😎
We are planning 600km/h train from Beijing to shanghai .Maybe it will coming soon.
That would really be something incredible!
LOL imagine if ed missed the train wehn sally went in lol XD
Hahaha she'd be so far ahead!
Nice vlog. I am visiting Shanghai this February. I am riding the maglev train definitely.
Yes! Make sure you do! It's awesome
In case you didn't get it: they rode the fastest train in the world
So glad you made this video... Make London Heathrow express a snail!
and expensive!!!
Haha exactly!
Now the train limits 300/km, I believe. You are lucky to have experienced the 430/km, the fastest. 😄😄😄
Melbourne Metro are more exciting , heaps of disruptions and slow LOL...
Haha, you should explore Sydney metro some time haha
@@SallyAndEd 😔😢😢😢
Well meglev is way beyond metro... plus its too expensive to build... China long ditched the plan and chose normal metro and HSR instead...
I love your videos, it put emphasis on the build build build approach of a once down in the basement country called China.
But what they did in a span of 30 years is just beyond the wildest imagination of the rest of the world ,
I hope through your video it will waken the leader of the world to focus more on infrastructure development instead of weapon of mass destruction development .
That would be amazing.
while in Victoria Australia the speed reduces to under 90 kph when its a hot day lol
In Sydney it's even slower 😂😂😂 It's quicker to drive in the traffic
This just brought back the memory of my tour in 2015. We took the same bullet train from airport to city, avoiding all the traffic. Such wonderful experience and I took videos and pictures and showed it to my son on return. He was really impressed. He is a train driver here in UK.
Our tour was all organised by Wendy Wu tours, such wonderful time! The train was quieter and more comfortable than expected.
What is VIP ticket of 100RM in £'s? No idea what we paid, didn't ask.
Such excitement! honestly! not scary at all.
Will do it again given the chance. But did Japan not came out with an even faster bullet train?
All these competitions, quite pointless to me. I loved my travel. Thank you for sharing.
100RMB is about £11 now
I would be really happy if V/Line in Melbourne could be half of the speed 🤣
Hahaha 🤣. Trains in Australia will never be that fast. I'm from Sydney, I can't imagine trains here going even a 5th of that speed
Shanghai Maglev is a beautiful example of german engineering and manufacturing (by ThyssenKrupp/Siemens; for verification see wikipedia with further sources).
The USA is so backwards when it come to energy, fuel and transportation. WHERE are the Thorium LFTR power reactors at!!??
Amazing China maglev train! Thanks for your video!
You're welcome! We had such an awesome day
Wonderful!
Wow just before the lockdown pandemic issue good on you
Still nice to see those fun trains
Greetings from Dali, China!! Can't stop watching your videos!! We used to live sooooooo close to the Maglev . . . LOVED it!!!!
Thanks for watching! Thats awesome! Dali looks like a really nice litte region to explore!
Head this way anytime!!! But be careful .. You may not want to leave ;)
well the Chiness built the Great Wall and i believe they can build much more things .
btw Trump also trying to make great wall at Mexico borders , Trump love China very much indeed.
great video, i live in shanghai, and I love my city, modern and convenient
8:51 Gigantic mini model? What it means?! Just kidding. Thanks for sharing the world the Chinese technology. Salute from a Chinese student in US.
Thanks Sam! We had such an awesome time making this video! Where in the US are you based?
Thats not chinese Technology the train is german Technology
Girl ,that was terrific afterburners you let out 5:34....Lol or was it out of pure excitement.
Awsome. The MAGLAV its a future of train 👌👍💪
Wow. Super train
2 nut foreigners. Cool. I wish l could do the same for fun.
It was so awesome!
2:48 You know 100 Renminbi is actually only around £10, so it's pretty cheap.
i think china and japan both country living in 2060,rest of world far behind ,but japan is more advanced than chin,and most important thing japan choose democracy and they developed under democracy, it's fantastic,and i feel ashamed as a indian
You shouldn’t be ashamed of being an Indian, be proud of who you are :)) I used to be a bit ashamed too of where I am from because of all the hates (I am from China) but then I realized the haters are just never seen my country before, they were just blinded by media and I know that my country is beautiful.
Japan actually didnt choose democracy, but forced to change its form of government after ww2. In actuality, Japan is a one party government
Japan is not a democratic country. Run by a 1 party system
Have a safe journey beautiful video friends
Thank you :D We had a wonderful time
6RM for 2 people to ride the metro?! Wow that's cheap
and 50RM for a train ride on that thing is pretty damn affordable, a taxi would be double at least
Taxi would easily be double. It was SOOO fun to ride on
RMB
From Longyang Rd to PVG Airport:
Metro: 6 RMB, 45 minutes & 3-5 min interval
Maglev: 50 RMB (40 RMB if you show your air tickets), 8- Minutes & 15-20min interval
Bus: 26 RMB, 1.5 - 2 Hours & 20-30min interval
Taxi: 120-200 RMB, 45min - 1 Hour & 5 - 10min wait
Most people will just take Metro. It is the second fastest and cost nothing.
Like how you show the full experience. To be more precise it's the fastest train *in business operation* in the world. Technically it's not much special today, but it does say a lot about the efficiency of the Chinese system.
You're spot on.
TransRapid, invented by Germany.
You're welcome.
China already successful launched rocket 27december 2019 make by them
Oh cool. We hadn't heard about it! Souds rad
I from India bro English no Kannada asked
This is originaly from Germany, siemens made ..
a good experience for 50yuan
It really is
I caught this Maglev train last year, and thought it was bumpier than I expected. I was surprised there was friction coming from somewhere despite being on a magnetic field. Great video guys.
I think it has rubber wheels which is why it's bumpy.
@@jaredgarbo3679 Transrapid and therefore the Shanghai Maglev Train, which is basically a german build Transrapid 08, has no wheels due to its engineering. The japanese maglev L0 has wheels to gain speed. German engineering doesn´t need that. They made the system as perfect as it can be seen here.
Lovely two guys, hopefully China leaves a deep impression on you guys.
It has! We loved it there. Can't wait to get back to China in 2020!
@@SallyAndEd I must say you guys are so positive to China which sadly very rare these days in cyber space. As a Shanghai born Aussie Melbournian, I applaud your spirit to promote better understanding between the two nations. Hope to see more of your vlog in the future. Love Sally's smile that could melt people's heart.
I need a maglev rollercoaster. Add it to your list China😎
Haha that would be amazing
Sally & Ed, thanks for sharing to us viewers your great experienced riding the Maglev train. Without watching this video of yours those who have not been to China will not believe the reality because the western medias used to cover up the good things about China. Almighty God bless both bless us all. Take care, be safe. Pray.🙏
In my country we are happily rocking 50km/h.
I think your video is crazy cool :)
Thank you!
A big Thanks to the Wonderful Couple to share this jaw dropping experience of The SHANGHAI MAGLEV for 2 Times with in the same shot/clip, it's schedule that was the most needed information once Thanks to the Infinite about that Metro System to not to miss on.. That was so beyond informative & precise. A big salute to You Both & I PRAY to "GOD" to keep You Both Always BLESSED. Love & 🙏From 🇮🇳
Needs a longer journey like from Shanghai to Shenzhen or Beijing.
That would be incredible
Enjoy your china travel ! Welcome ! We peace and love.
Thank you! We had an awesome time!
Lovely travel couple love you guys tc
Thank you! :D
Yes it's fast, but still I feel strange looking forgners getting so excited just taking a train.
Hahaha, here in Australia we don't have fast trains at all. I like trains
You have to understand that here in the US most passenger trains do not run above 75mph apart from a few East coast lines. And we are unlikely to see that change any time soon. Too much focus on what will it cost to build and will it make money. Along with the not in my back yard crowd. China has shown that just getting it done is OK.
Fun fact, when China ordered this German technology….Transrapid had to scramble to build very first high speed maglev into service in a span of only a few months. The prototype didn’t even have that stuff. It looks like ICE 3 style on the sides of the train.
I didn’t know they go slower during off peak hours. interesting!
No it doesn’t go to downtown Shanghai
Ohhhh. We thought Longyang Rd. Station counts as downtown. Our apologies
Nice to see you westerners are enjoying yourselves in China. Nice and happy video.
Thanks! We had such a great time in China
Nothing beats Amtrak !
New York to Washington DC
Thirty Minutes. Late.
Hahaha. Classic. You should check out the trains in Australia. They're either late or cancelled 🤣
Excellent
and in North america to get to downtown of a major city from rural, 20 30 kms, one hour please...
Haha it's the same in Australia 😂😂
The China high-speed train network is a real eye-opener.Thanks for you make the great video ! Nice vlog ！
Mainly based on cooperation and technology licences out of Europe. Same goes for this Shanghai SM... äh, I mean Transrapid 08 that runs in Shanghai.
Shanghai’s maglev is not fastest train in world, it’s actually Japan’s maglev.
Exactly
I was going to make that comment until I saw yours
I find them very annoying in that they are always saying oh this is the absolute fastest train in the world and oh this is the speed faster then any other train ever! And I really hate it
Great
Thanks! :D
That maglev used to make your cell phone turn off when they first started it and it lifted up. It is a pretty impressive ride I must say.
Sorry to say this, but the Maglev Facts were wrong, yeah, maglev stands for magnetic levitation, but it levitates 15cm above the track because it lies on a kind of sleigh, 1cm is from the bottom and the sides. Also: Why didn’t you mentioned that the Transrapid is from Germany?
the next time you travel on the world's fastest train, POINT THE CAMERA IN THE DIRECTION OF A WINDOW!
600km/hr China Maglev have not ever ran in such test soeed yet although it certainly is capable
The test track only use fir testing
Waiting injection of more fund to build a small line
But HSR building take precedent
That looked so amazing.
7:20 No, just No. The Top speed of the Transrapid is 501,6 km/h but on a longer road the Transrapid can reach up to 660km/h and even more
Is it something of a novelty like the monorail from Los Angeles airport to the city? Rather small number of carriages and no booking in advance makes one wonder..
hmmm interesting 400km but only at a certain time :O i wonder why, maybe because express?
I don't think it's busy enough most of the time. There is also a super convenient metro to the airport. It takes about 40 minutes but it's so cheap in comparison
It is reduced to save electricity cost. The maglev was built as an experimental line before China started to upgrade its network to high speed rail. We were arguing if we should go for the traditional wheeled HSR or maglev. It was built to test the feasibility of a nation wide maglev network. However a lot of things happened along the way, residents were protesting due to radiation concern, and the battery in the train actually caught fire once, Transrapid also refused to transfer the technology to China, so we have abandoned maglev and went for traditional HSR. This line was supposed to be extended city center and hongqiao railway station/airport and finally Hangzhou. They have even built the stations already, but the extension never came true. Longyang station at the time was considered suburb of the city with no one living nearby, so the line never had enough passengers to even cover the electricity bill, later they decided to reduce the spped during certain hours to save some costs. Although longyang station is quite a big interchange station right now, metro line 2 has also extend to the airport, so it still is covering its costs.
It's a really sad story. Really hoped it would at least extends to connect hongqiao airport. It has been brought up so many times but now the project seems completely dead. Another airport express line is already under construction. The existing section would probably be dismantled when it reaches its life span.
Nijing Feng ahh right thanks for that info
"- it's sustainable because it uses magnet who don't make air pollution"
**No, not really...**
great 👍
Thank you! We had a wonderful time
Ah, though it's zero emissions the power for the electromagnets has to come from somewhere! Right now it's probably largely from coal-fired power stations. They do have the biggest solar & wind power programs in the world but it'll be a while before they're absolutely zero emission.
China purchased this Maglev from Germany early this century.
But China has the best High-Speed Railway in the world now.
You're absolutely right about that.
In actual this project came out to be fail....as of now these maglev trains are going in huge loss even after decreasing fare. As they are costly and theres no need of such trains on short routes.
You guys are really funny
Loved
Thanks Kevin!
guys you need update because china are launching new 600kmp maglev highspeed railways
