Shanghai Maglev

Landing at PuDong airport I headed for the super high speed magnetic levitation train that goes in to Shanghai. I have been to Shanghai a couple times but never had a chance to ride the train so I didn't know what to expect. It was pretty smooth considering the speed we were traveling at and felt more like an electric subway than a train like Japans bullet train. I got on after 5:30 though so the top speed it went to was 300 km instead of its top operational speed of 431 km. Too bad.
