Maglev is definitely a choice for FUTURE transportation due to high oil prices, low maintenance cost (approx 35 cents per mile VS 5$ per mile for conventional train)... MAGLEV can replace airplanes, cars, conventional trains...
MAGLEV is only a one time billions of dollars of investment... but still better than people spent billions of dollars on OIL EVERYDAY!
Think about this: let's say 100 years from today, all oil are used up, or oil prices will hit 1000$ per barrell, then who can afford to travel by airplane? or driving? no one afford this $$$.
Maglev is definitely the best transportation system in the future.
May be one day... we have a chance to see a MAGLEV travelling from New York to San Francisco!
