The Incredible £7m Hydrogen Train To Be introduced In ‘Fastest Growing’ Country

The title of this post, is the same as that of this article in the Express.

This is the sub-heading.

Each hydrogen train is priced at £7 million and can run up to 621 miles (1,000km) on a single tank, reaching speeds of 87mph (140 km/h).

These two paragraphs add more details.

India is the fastest-growing economy among G20 nations and is set to launch its first hydrogen-powered train this December.

The groundbreaking train will debut on the Jind-Sonipat route in Haryana and will mark a massive step toward eco-friendly rail travel.

If you look at the article, there is an impressive looking picture, but it may be a visualisation.

This page on etnow.in has an interesting paragraph.

  • In this context, the launch of Hydrogen trains deserves special mention. The national transporter has envisaged running 35 Hydrogen trains under “Hydrogen for Heritage” on various heritage and hill routes.

Does that mean that Indian Railways are using hydrogen-powered trains to avoid spoiling the scenery with overhead wires?

Hydrogen-powered trains in India could be a story to watch.
