Transrapid is a magnetic levitation train. These are kept in suspension, driven and braked by magnetic forces. The concept goes back to the German engineer Hermann Kemper, who invented the magnetic levitation train - also called "Maglev" (English: "magnetic levitation") - at the beginning of the 20th century.
