    The trailers they pull can also be fitted with under-side spoilers that angle outward to deflect passing air from the rear axle's wheels. Trains may use spoilers to induce drag (like an air brake). A prototype Japanese high-speed train, the Fastech 360, is designed to reach speeds of 400 km/h (250 mph). Its nose is specifically designed to ...
