Первый российский водородный поезд будет на 80% отечественным

All components of the train, except for the hydrogen part, are made in Russia

"Transmashholding" (TMH) presented a model of the first Russian passenger hydrogen train. This was announced by Alexey Kornilov, Head of the Labor Protection and Industrial Safety Department at TMH.

The train will be designed in two versions. The first train will consist of two head cars with a booster section, which will house power plants and energy storage devices. The second one will consist of three cars (intermediate, booster section, and two head cars).

The trains will be able to operate using a multiple-unit system – two trains can be combined; control of both will be carried out from the cab of the leading train. The range of a three-car train will be 487 kilometers on hydrogen and 40 km on energy storage devices, a two-car train – 725 kilometers on hydrogen and 80 km on energy storage devices.
