It must be Maglev, although it did not say in the article... I wonder if in the future we will be modeling Maglev trains?

That would be insane to model Maglev trains. They would need a special track and everything. This would be very cool if some day we were able to model Maglev trains though!

If that is possible, the prices on the track and cars would be outrageously expensive

Would they ever be able to miniaturize that kind of technology? You would probably be advised to wear protective clothing for when the train flies off the track!
