Sleek Emissions-Free Trains

This Hydrogen Train Was Developed for Narrow-Gauge Italian Tracks

This hydrogen train has been developed through a partnership between Stadler and ARST as a way to help contribute towards the decarbonization of the railway lines in areas with infrastructure constraints. The train takes aim at the narrow-gauge tracks found in Sardinia, Calabria and Sicily in Italy where existing hydrogen-powered locomotives don't work due to space constraints. The train is equipped with a propulsion system that relies entirely on hydrogen fuel cells and keeps them concentrated in the Power Pack car as a way to maximize accessibility and comfort as well as efficiency.

The hydrogen train comes as part of a broader effort supported by the Italian government to decarbonize narrow-gauge rail networks throughout Southern Italy. The entire fleet will need to undergo certification by Italy's national rail safety agency before passenger service begins.
