I’m at #Innotrans all day. I’ll sporadically post in this thread.

First impression: CRRC (Chinese manufacturer) has the main advert at Messe Süd

The industrial saboteurs are here #Innotrans
And here it is! The most stupid rail vehicle currently produced. A hydrogen tram 🤬 Hyundai-Rotem #Innotrans
The Talgo electric locomotive for DB - series 105 - is here. They didn’t already build 19 of these I hope? 🤔 #Innotrans
Končar has a battery electric multiple unit here. That seems to charge only from a cable, not from an overhead wire in a terminus #Innotrans
@jon
So, they need extra special equipment to be possible to use? Defeats the stated use case, I'd say.
@Gurre maybe. But from - say - Split where there are no overhead wires?
@jon @Gurre
Might they be expecting to share the charging infrastructure with Trucks, or Buses, when not charging the BMUs - so they've aligned with automotive standards?
