Yep, but you’re suggesting that a train which with a diesel motor that weighs that much, wouldn’t be an issue with batteries. If you are going electric, skip the batteries and go over head tram lines and be done with it.

Easy to say when you’re not paying for it.
SupraMario@lemmy.world 2 years ago
And you think a train full of batteries is going to be able to do what a fuel locomotive can?

Explain to me why it couldn’t.
