Arcola Energy's rail engineering team working on the Scottish hydrogen train at the Bo'ness and Kinneil Railway is now at the half way point in converting a former Scotrail Class 314 electric train to hydrogen fuel cell technology as part of a program to demonstrate the role hydrogen-powered trains can play in decarbonising Scottish railways by 2023. Transport Minister Graeme Dey MSP when visiting Arcola Energy at Bo'ness this month was impressed by the enthusiasm and professionalism of all involved in the project. Leading rolling stock asset manager Angel Trains is supporting the project with an investment of more than £500,000 in flexible refueller installation delivering green hydrogen.This investment will also enable further development of the technology. The Scottish Hydrogen Trains project is the first rail project incorporating a dedicated green hydrogen refuelling infrastructure.
Lord Roberts No.1 is the only working steam locomotive doing the service trains at the moment with Steam Locomotives NCB No.19, and Caley No.419, undergoing repairs.
