    Estimating B-Field Required to Levitate a Train

    Hey! I am trying to get a rough estimate for the B-field (from a electromagnet) required to levitate a train. Assuming the train is of mass M, the force required to lift it and hold it at a distance D would have to equal M x g right? But how do i estimate the b-field an electromagnet...
