An alternative to a magnetic levitation train (sometimes known as a maglev train) is a ground effect train. In both scenarios, avoiding the vehicle making contact with the ground should be the primary focus of the driver. While a maglev train does this via the utilization of magnetism, a ground effect train does so through the utilization of an air cushion, either in the manner of a hovercraft or by the utilization of the 'wing-in-ground-effect' design.
