Maglev?

Legh Richardson
Ok,

I can think of several reasons why the UK doesn't adopt (poor security at different levels) the linear motor concept rather than standard rail tracks, but... why hasn't more publicity been generated around the the possible use of a Maglev railway and its distinct advantages ?

    There seems to be an opportunity to develop superfast high speed link between Europe and Scotland.- however there's no guarantee that it will be efficient, that's up to humans to behave.  HS2 track will have to be laid. At this point a hybrid track could be laid that takes advantage of existing rail designs and a futuristic maglev design. I suppose somebody has thought about this and rejected it for various reasons?
