  Came here to say this. We tested this in Germany and this experiment failed. Too bad that they didn’t post the details then. I wish this had worked…

  I dived deeper and found the full results of the eWayBW test and a summary. So far I don’t see there why the test was considered a failure. It’s all in German of course.

    I didn’t read all of it but the technical side was mostly OK (as expected, it’s an adaptation of proven train technology), it’s just that there was little commercial interest.
