Swiss train manufacturer Stadler and Sardinian transport operator ARST are officially planning the development of the world's first hydrogen-powered train built specifically for narrow-gauge lines.

Notably, the introduction of 10 hydrogen trains in Sardinia will cut over 2100 tonnes of CO2 per year compared to diesel trains (equivalent to roughly 450 car trips around the globe).
