India has entered the elite league of nations operating hydrogen-powered passenger trains, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi flagging off the country's first Hydrogen Fuel Cell Trainset on the Jind–Sonipat section in Haryana. The 10-coach train, capable of carrying around 2,600 passengers, is among the largest hydrogen-powered passenger trainsets in the world. Unlike conventional diesel or electric trains, it generates electricity onboard using hydrogen fuel cells, emitting only water vapour and heat.
