I think we ought to move the maglev to the bottom of the railroad category. While it is a physical reality in test labs and perhaps a couple of lines in Japan, it has not been implemented or embraced world wide the way traditional rail roads have. user:mirwin

Maglevs aren’t rail transport, nor are some monorails that are more like cable cars. Also metro/subway is usually a more narrow gauge. PhilDaBirdMan (talk) 19:37, 21 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
