I know very few of you here know little about the Maglev in Japan because news just never gets translated

It seems to be a test bed mostly as the interiors aren't fancy and they're going to be testing the Projector system, the new magnets that don't require Helium cooling and the new sharkskin unpainted skin thats supposed to give 1% more performance.

Since I know there very little knowledge about it here some resources they're all in Japanese but translation tools these days are fantastic.
