I've never jumped on the hydrogen bandwagon. I know it's technically renewable, but I feel hydrogen is a stop-gap resource.

Oh, I thought hydrogen was colourless. TIL.

I haven't been on that train for a while but I thought the entire line was electrified, the three stations and parts of the line definitely are. Either way it doesn't make sense to me to build up hydrogen infrastructure instead of electrifying the sections of rail that aren't yet. Can't be that much in Germany. In parts where it just isn't possible for whatever reasons why not install a few batteries?
