The need for rapid transit systems has become vital in both urban and intercity travels. There are two technologies for these systems, High-Speed Rail (HSR) and magnetic levitation (maglev). They are dramatically different in lots of terms. Despite demands for these types of transportation, no well-accepted report has been publicly presented for the technical comparison of these systems. This research is in response to such a necessity. The paper focuses only on the technical comparison of these technologies. The purpose of this research is not to recommend one technology over the other. However, this research surveys technical advantages of the maglev systems over the HSR systems. The results obtained indicate that the maglev systems have more technical advantages than that of the HSR systems.
