Decarbonizing rail transportation is a political problem as much as a technological one.

I can't wait until people get bored with wasting money on hydrogen, it's an absolute dead end technology.

Toyota are almost giving the Mirai away, because nobody wants to pay more than twice the running cost of an F150 to run a sedan.

Especially on a train, where weight is far less of an issue, a combination of overhead pantograph and batteries is a proven technology.
