Debut of the Alstom Coradia iLint, a hydrogen-powered passenger train, at InnoTrans 2016. In transportation, the original (2003) generic term "hydrail" includes hydrogen trains, zero-emission multiple units, or ZEMUs — generic terms describing rail vehicles, large or small, which use on-board hydrogen fuel as a source of energy to power the traction motors, or the auxiliaries, or both.
The hydrogen conversion was done with the aim of making a vehicle capable of beating the current land speed record for hydrogen powered vehicles. [14] [15] [16] It achieved a respectable 108.16 mph, missing the world record for hydrogen powered vehicles by 0.1 mph. [17]
A record of 207.297 miles per hour (333.612 km/h) was set by a prototype Ford Fusion Hydrogen 999 Fuel Cell Race Car at the Bonneville Salt Flats, in August 2007, using a large compressed oxygen tank to increase power. [106] The land-speed record for a hydrogen-powered vehicle of 286.476 miles per hour (461.038 km/h) was set by Ohio State ...
The train used for the speed record was code named V150, and comprised three modified Duplex cars, fitted with two powered bogies similar to the AGV prototype, marshalled between a pair of TGV power cars from POS trainset 4402. The train had four more powered axles than trainset 325 used in the 1990 speed record, and had a maximum power output ...
The rail cars are full of thousands of tons of iron ore on the way down to Narvik, and these trains generate large amounts of electricity by regenerative braking, with a maximum recuperative braking force of 750 kN. From Riksgränsen on the national border to the Port of Narvik, the trains [14] use only a fifth of the power they regenerate.
An L0 Series trainset, holding the non-conventional train world speed record of 603 km/h (375 mph) TGV 4402 (operation V150) reaching 574.8 km/h (357 mph). The world record for a conventional wheeled passenger train is held by a modified French TGV high-speed (with standard equipment) code named V150, set in 2007 when it reached 574.8 km/h (357.2 mph) on a 140 km (87 mi) section of track.

It was proposed that the LRT will use hydrogen fuel cell rolling-stock with a travel speed of 70–140km/h. [7] The hydrogen fuel cell trains were in line with the state government’s vision to develop a hydrogen economy, as part of its green initiative. Aside from hydrogen-powered trains, Kuching will also be the first city in the country to ...
These trains can reach a maximum speed of 160 respectively 140 kilometres per hour, depending on the power source used. The trains will have a length of 63.2 metres (207 ft 4 + 1 ⁄ 4 in) and 74.4 metres (244 ft 1 + 1 ⁄ 8 in) . [86] Delivery is delayed, and expected for October 2025. [87]
