World’s First Hydrogen Fuel Train Tested

And all this time we, or maybe it was just me, thought that hydrogen fuel was the fuel of the future for cars, only.
The Taiwan Science and Technology Museum, tested a train running on hydrogen fuel cell power on April 11.
The cost to this point has been about 400 million New Taiwan dollars to develop the:
1. train fuel cell power system
2. track
3. hydrogen stations
One of the biggest problems confronting hydrogen fuel is the distribution system for refueling is not in place and the big oil companies still have a lot of money to make off of fossil fuels.
Trains don't have that problem.
Where they go is pretty much decided.
How about hydrogen fuel for airplanes and ships, too?
