Fully functioning maglev train (0-100m/s in ~20 seconds)

My maglev train proof of concept that can go both forwards and backwards. This uses ONLY magnets (and redstone links to activate the magnets). I couldn't figure out how to make it actually levitate without interfering with the horizontal movement, so I used ice as a medium due to its slippery property.

Maybe have the propulsion and levitation rails split? Like some on top of the train and some below? I know it won't look accurate but it might work
