I know for a fact that United Parcel Service, has been using a maglev system in their Pacific, WA Hub for almost two years now. There is also plans to build one in Montana even bigger. What does the maglev system do for UPS you ask? It automaticly sorts the packages using all those bar codes and dots they put on the labels.
