This spectacular superconductor railroad was designed and built by BerkelaarMRT.com
(specialist in regulation technology) for the Science Centre Delft in The Netherlands.
The orange train levitates over 19 metre (!) long tracks, to which 4500 Q-10-10-05-N
block magnets were attached.
It develops an impressive speed, because it only has to overcome the aerodynamic resistance - there is no friction on the ground.
To make sure the train won't get too fast, it is slowed down at two places on the tracks.
At the end of the tracks the train reaches the filling station again, and it can begin its journey all over again.
