I am looking for a simulation tool that could simulate this type of phenomena
Just for grasping the principle a little better
Could you recommend one?
Thank you.

OK, Purcell shows my mistakes one by one without shame :-)
1) There is no UP force caused by the moving charge of the train.
The magnetic field lines are up , the current flow is in the same plan as the force perpendicular to the UP pointing magnetic filed lines.
2) A wire is...
My problem is with visualizing this phenomenon.
If we will think of a moving train that carries electrically charged material - we get moving charge. From the mathematic I can see the cross product being transverse to the moving direction.
But I can not think of any "reason" (if a "reason"...
I know that electric and magnetic fields are the same phenomena just from a different perspective.
I also know that this is related to the relativistic speed of the electrons flowing in the wires.
I am unable to grasp the picture - how does it happen?
Do you have an explanation?
Thank...
