Description

The line uses a medium-low speed magnetic levitation technology which can give a top speed of {{convert|105|km/h|mph|abbr=on}}.{{cite news|url=http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/90001/90776/90882/7196639.html|title=Beijing's first maglev train plans to open in 2012|work=People's Daily Online}}{{cite news|url=http://english.peopledaily.com.cn/90882/7574518.html|title=Nation New maglev line to connect western Beijing|work=People's Daily Online}} The actual operating speed of the line is either {{convert|80 or 100|km/h|mph|abbr=on}}.{{Cite web |title=北京S1线中低速磁浮列车 |url=https://www.crrcgc.cc/ts/g8201/s38508/t323114.aspx |access-date=April 3, 2024}}{{cite web|url=http://heb.chinadaily.com.cn/2018-11/07/content_37218624.htm|date=2018-11-07|title=唐车造北京S1线磁浮列车开始以100km/h载客运行}}

Six-coach maglev trains were built by the CRRC Tangshan, a subsidiary of CRRC.{{cite news|url=http://www.chinadailyasia.com/business/2014-02/19/content_15119182.html|title=Maglev trains speeding toward greener future|last1=NAN|first1=ZHONG|date=19 February 2014|access-date=4 January 2015|work=China Daily}} It is China's third commercial maglev train in operation. Line S1 is part of Beijing's attempts to tackle environmental problems caused by heavy car use, coal burning and fast urbanization by upgrading its urban rail systems.

The Line S1 designation is a holdover from a defunct plan to build several suburban railway lines in Beijing. Line S1 was envisioned to reuse the Jingmen Railway connecting {{stl|BJS|Cishousi}} station to Mentougou District.{{Cite web|url=http://business.sohu.com/20071206/n253843380.shtml |script-title=zh:北京市规划建6条市郊铁路 速度比地铁快一倍(图)-搜狐财经|website=business.sohu.com |publisher=Sohu |access-date=2017-12-21}} That plan was abandoned and the section between Pingguoyuan and Cishousi stations was replaced with Phase 3 of Line 6, and the other section was replaced with today's Maglev S1 Line.
