Indian Railways, one of the world's largest railway networks, is stepping into a new era of sustainability and innovation with the introduction of India's first hydrogen-powered train. This groundbreaking train will revolutionize the way trains operate by eliminating the need for diesel and electricity, running solely on water through advanced hydrogen fuel technology. Expected to start operations in December 2024, the hydrogen train will emit only steam and water as byproducts, marking a significant milestone in India's transportation sector. The pilot project will require around 40,000 liters of water per hour, with plans to launch 35 hydrogen trains across the country. With a speed of up to 140 km/h, the first hydrogen train is anticipated to cover up to 1,000 kilometers in a single run. The train's high-tech features include being 60 percent quieter than diesel trains while maintaining the same speed and passenger capacity. This eco-friendly initiative aligns with Indian Railways' goal of enhancing sustainability and reducing pollution. The proposed routes for the hydrogen trains include scenic railway lines like the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway and the Nilgiri Mountain Railway, showcasing a commitment to preserving India's rich railway heritage.
