Suggest adding reference to the BSNF Fuel Cell Prototype

[edit]

Suggest adding under "History, projects and prototypes" the BSNF Fuel Cell prototype engine, that had significant test experience during 2010 to 2012: See: http://www.greenpatentblog.com/2012/10/15/bnsf-patents-and-demos-hybrid-fuel-cell-locomotive/ Tony (talk) 16:41, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

date check

[edit]

Which of the 2007 would you like to be checked ? Mion (talk) 22:10, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Given that several national governments, the EU, the UN and many universities have participated in Hydrail Conferences and that the University of Pisa, Italy, and the University of Birmingham, UK, have Ph.D. candidates in the technology who have participated in the Hydrail Conferences, the assertion that the entry is a "neologism of no note" seems insupportable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by H S Thompson (talkcontribs) 02:20, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Indonesia

[edit]

There's the planned hispeed raillink for hydrails in Indonesia missing in the list. --Edroeh (talk) 19:33, 24 March 2011 (UTC) (src: http://www.ecofriendlymag.com/sustainable-transporation-and-alternative-fuel/hydrogen-hi-speed-rail-super-highway-h2rsh-begins-in-west-java/ or http://www.thehydrogenjournal.com/displaynews.php?NewsID=367)[reply]

I've now added that; thanks for the links. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 02:35, 26 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Description of fuel safety

[edit]

The current article uses an unsourced phrase "hydrogen is combustible [...] crash would be really bad". Hydrogen is flammable rather than combustible (src: https://www.ccohs.ca/oshanswers/chemicals/flammable/flam.html) whereas diesel is combustible (see Diesel_fuel). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spuriogram (talkcontribs) 09:29, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 3 November 2023

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved to Hydrogen train. Pretty much unanimous support for Hydrogen train. (closed by non-admin page mover) EggRoll97 (talk) 19:59, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]


HydrailHydrogen fuel cell train – Hydrail is jargon and difficult to understand to a layperson (the typical Wikipedia reader). Hydrogen fuel cell train is far more descriptive. -- RickyCourtney (talk) 17:59, 3 November 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 18:09, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support or move to simply Hydrogen train. I did a quick Google search of “Hydrogen train”, and it seems that news articles seem to simplify it to just that, possible WP:COMMONNAME. Fork99 (talk) 21:32, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I would support a move to either Hydrogen train or Hydrogen-powered train, with a preference for the second. Both appear to be commonly used. I agree the present name is not ideal. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 22:00, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment "hydrogen train" could refer to a cargo train transporting hydrogen instead of one powered by it. And hydrogen-powered train can refer to hydrogen-combustion-powered trains [1] -- thus "hydrogen-powered train" would be the better choice, since this article supposedly also covers hydrogen combustion; or we could remove hydrogen combustion (since it's only a few sentences), and make it only a "hydrogen fuel cell train" article. instead. -- 65.92.247.90 (talk) 14:20, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Are there any real world examples of hydrogen cargo trains? When someone says “diesel train”, they're typically referring to one that is powered by diesel, not one that is transporting diesel. They typically instead say “fuel train”, at least in Australia where I'm from. Fork99 (talk) 18:58, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • support move from Hydrail to anything else, Hydrogen train would be fine. I don't remember seeing the term hydrail in railway-related news articles recently. After some googling just now, "hydrail" seems to be used though, just not as much as "hydrogen train", I'd say. Nyamo Kurosawa (talk) 11:06, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
