Train breaks world's speed record on rails

The French-made V150 was faster than a speeding Bullet (train, that is) as it reached a speed of 574.8 kilometers (357 miles) per hour breaking the world speed record on rails. Alstom Transport, Reseau Ferre de France and the French railway system SNCF partnered in developing the record-breaking train.
The fastest train ever clocked was the Maglev from Japan, which hit a speed of 361 mph in 2003. However, the Maglev uses electromagnetic technology so the train never touches the rails.
