On a maglev train, there are no wheels.instead, there are magnets on the guide rails and magnets on the bottom of the train the magnets on the guide rails have the same magnetic charge as those on the trainFor example, a positively charged magnet will push away from another positively charged magnet Likewise, a negatively charged magnet will push away from another negatively charged magnet This is because the electrical charges in both magnets are opposing each other. This helps lift the train off the guide rail and pull it forward
