Resolves after at least one day of normal operations (as opposed to some kind of 'soft' or preview opening). If this is disputable, I will use the metric of 'could I buy a ticket?'.
Update 2025-02-15 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Intercity Routes Clarification:
The Changsha to Liuyang route is considered a valid intercity MagLev project.
An operational MagLev on this route that meets the criteria (at least one day of normal operations, meaning tickets can be purchased) will count for the market resolution.
This question is managed and resolved by Manifold.
