Transrapid has a commercially operating maglev in Shanghai. 

This Shanghai Maglev Train demonstration line, or Initial Operating Segment (IOS), has been in commercial operations since April 2004 and now operates 115 (up from 110 daily trips in 2010) daily trips that traverse the 30 km (19 mi) between the two stations in just 7 minutes, achieving a top speed of 431 km/h (268 mph), averaging 266 km/h (165 mph). On a 12 November 2003 system commissioning test run, the Shanghai maglev achieved a speed of 501 km/h (311 mph), which is its designed top cruising speed for longer intercity routes. Unlike the old Birmingham maglev technology, the Shanghai maglev is extremely fast and comes with on time – to the second – reliability of greater than 99.97%.(7-minute real time video of the maglev reaching 431 km/h in only 3 minutes)

Plans to extend the line to Shanghai South Railway Station and Hongqiao Airport on the western edge of Shanghai are presently on hold, awaiting government approval
