Using hydrogen as an adjuct to standard compression ignition engines makes sense, more sense than trying for sole hydrogen powered vehicles via fuel cells. Now, all we need is someone to combine the hydrogen injection technology with the hybrid vehicle concept! <br /> <br />For diesel electric locomotives, you may not even need to have hydrogen on board at the start, just convert the dynamic brakes into regenerative units and use the electricity generated to convert water (from a tank car) into hydrogen. Question: Could hydrogen created on board during transit be safely and efficiently stored on board? via compression or liquification?
