SCMaglev Track

Description
The track is designed specifically for the Chūō Shinkansen. Don't make tight curves. Otherwise the train will go visually through the track.

You can use this station to fit the track: SCMaglev Crossing Station.

The SCMaglev system was developed in Japan and is currently under construction on the Chūō Shinkansen line (中央新幹線) between Tokyo and Nagoya.
Unlike the German maglev system (Modern MAGLEV track), the Japanese technology uses superconducting magnets (SC) - hence SCMaglev - to lift the train. Since lift occurs at a minimum of 180 km/h, the train uses rubber wheels at lower speeds.
This system does not only improve the vehicle stabilization, but also allows far greater speeds above 600 km/h.

Includes station track for asset creators. If you want to update existing monorail stations, you can use the Touch This! Tool mod to replace the vanilla monorail station track with this one. The width of one concrete track is exactly 2 metres. The recommended width between two platforms is 8 metres, which is exactly the width of train stations and more than monorail stations, so you have to consider this.

@Nickayz I know that monorail can't build a track underground. There's always a ditch around the track. But in this case it doesn't and the track goes into the terrain. How is that possible? It looks like it's underground but you can't see it in tunnel mode. It's better than creating a ditch, I'm just curious. Because it wasn't possible before. All other tracks create a ditch. So it's great if it works like this.

Feel free to do so.

Since there is no official tunnel version of monorail, a MAGLEV track based on train or metro network would be a good idea

I agree. It's a shame, that Colossol Order didn't enable tunnels for monorails. I would love that, too.

Too bad there are no tunnel pieces since the real Chuo Shinkansen will run through a mountain.

can you make a train version of this? also for the vehicle too
