How can levitating trains support the claim that magnetic fields exist between objects exerting magnetic force on each other even when there is no physical contact?

Levitating trains are controlled by the repulsion of two similar magnetic poles being brought close together.

Levitating trains are controlled by the attraction of two similar magnetic poles being brought close together.

Levitating trains are controlled by the attraction and connection of magnets on the train to magnets on the train tracks.

Levitating trains are controlled by the repulsion and connection of magnets on the train to the magnets on the train tracks.

A group of students was discussing whether the concept of magnetic fields is just a theory or if magnetic forces can be shown to exist between objects that are not touching. Some of the students were convinced that these forces only exist in theory while the rest of the students decided to prove that these forces actually exist. How can the students prove that magnetic forces exist between objects that are not touching each other?

Tape a bar magnet to the top of a toy car and use a second bar magnet to move the car without allowing it to touch the car.
