Maglev train instead of airplane
The progress is as a result of the government approving three possible routes between Tokyo and Nagoya for Japan Railway’s experimental maglev trains that can hit speeds of around 500kph
They won’t be ready to put a maglev train into service at those speeds until 2025 at the earliest.
That year you will ride 263 km between Tokyo and Nagoya in a half hour or so by maglev train.
