Hybrid railway

East Japan Railway announced that they completed the first hybrid railway vehicle in the world, and ran in the Komi line on the 31st. This is a type of using together of the diesel and the battery and it can conserve the energy generated when decelerating as electricity. It is very wonderful! I hear that a fuel cell type hybrid train that generates electricity with hydrogen and oxygen also is developing.It is good that the number of vehicles that consider the environment increases. Especially, the train is public transportation, so I think it is good further for the environment if everyone uses it.
