As someone from Germany that's the first time in reading that it was ever a thing for trains

Pretty much all our rails have electric lines on top and most trains are working electrically already

I really don't see a point to waste hydrogen on cars or trains where pure electricity is working fine

Planes seems to be the main target that absolutely will never work electrically so it needs hydrogen - there even was an article about a ship running on batteries a couple of days ago
