Zillertalbahn Hydrogen Plan Dropped In Favour Of Battery Traction

The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on Railway Gazette.

I wrote about this order in Zillertalbahn Orders Stadler Hydrogen-Powered Trains.

I didn’t blog about it but I remembered an article a few years ago about Stadler getting an order from the Zillertalbahn.

It appears the change is down to improvements in battery technology.

Narrow-gauge battery-electric multiple units must be right up Stadler’s street, as they built the new trains for the narrow gauge Glasgow Subway.
