- Railway Minister announced that India will have its first hydrogen train ready by December this year.
- The hydrogen train will initially run on heritage circuits like Kalka to Shimla.
- Hydrogen trains, as the name suggests, run on hydrogen fuel cells.

- Hydrogen fuel cells convert hydrogen and oxygen which then produces the electricity that is used to power the train’s motors.
- These trains use clean energy transition fuel that does not emit any air pollutants.
