We are, in the US. The Las Vegas Express is a MAGLEV monorail that Amtrak's building between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Which begs the question: Who, of sound mind and greater than room temperature IQ, would /ever/ /want/ to go to Los Angeles in the first place, much less as quickly as possible? There's also the Seattle Monorail, which was poorly designed and shoddily built quickly for the World's Fair, with track curves close enough together that two trains will collide head on if they round the same curve on parallel tracks, though they've been talking about fixing that problem and expanding the system.
