Italy-based railway operator Ferrovie della Calabria (FdC) embarked on an agreement with Swiss company Stadler for the procurement of three additional narrow-gauge hydrogen trains, with an additional requirement of up to 15. Notably, these trains mark Stadler as the global pioneer in crafting narrow-gauge marvels with hydrogen propulsion, leveraging lightweight aluminium structures for enhanced energy efficiency.
Stadler's innovative approach extends beyond revolutionising rail transport with hydrogen power; it encompasses a commitment to sustainability through the incorporation of aluminium in their train bodies. The technical marvel of these narrow-gauge wonders lies in their aluminium-rich composition, contributing to both structural integrity and environmental responsibility.
