Alstom’s Coradia iLint train is making its way along the tracks connecting Quebec City to Baie-Saint-Paul, Que., as part of an $8-million pilot project this summer. The train is powered by a hydrogen fuel cell, using green hydrogen produced by Harnois Énergies, and emits only water vapour while it runs. It’s been in commercial service in Germany since 2018, but this is its North American debut and Alstom claims the train is the first of its kind on the continent. Franca Mignacca reports.
