In short – it’s the transportation future we need. The Superconducting Maglev Train (SCMAGLEV) uses superconducting magnetic technology to float in a U-shaped guideway. Since there’s no traditional wheel-on-rail friction, the train is able to efficiently reach incredibly high speeds, offering riders a one- hour trip between Washington, D.C. and NYC. This train won’t just revolutionize and elevate travel standards in the U.S.; it will also connect people to the places, events and jobs they want like never before.

So, what's the latest update on our entry plan, you ask? Well, we're absolutely delighted to share with you a train-tastic improvement plan that will make your entry experience smoother! 🚆🎟️

1️⃣ We have separated the registration line (I need to pick up a badge) and relocated it to the platform on L St NW for entry into the South Lobby. If you registered prior to the mailed badge deadline, you will be able to skip this registration line altogether! Just make sure to bring your badge with you.

2️⃣ If you already have your badge in hand our friendly conductors will guide you to the main platform on Mt Vernon Pl NW (enter through the left ramp). Seeking an alternative route? There is an additional platform available in the Marriott Marquis through the connector.

3️⃣ Want to get to the fun faster? Traveling light? We have added an additional platform for those members entering without props or bags on Mt Vernon Pl NW (enter through the right ramp).

All these improvements have been made possible by the invaluable feedback from our incredible community. We are deeply grateful for your input and are committed to creating an unforgettable experience together.
