The maglev train is capable of reaching 372 mph (600kph)
It would only take 2.5 hours to travel from Beijing to Shanghai
Such journey currently takes 3 hours by plane
The maglev train uses electro-magnetic force to "levitate" above the track
with no contact between body and rail
China has been using the technology for nearly 20 years on a very limited scale
