Physics - Electricity And Circuits - Learning Points. The Maglev train in China does not have an engine. Instead it uses electromagnets. Magnets allow the Maglev train to levitate above the track. The Maglev train encounters less friction and so can reach greater speeds. The Maglev train can reach a top speed of 581 km/h. A Twig Context Film. Reinforce and extend the learning required by the curriculum. Twig’s context films show abstract concepts in action in the real world.\n
