How massive is the train, and how massive is the fuel cell?

Also, what process (and process efficiency) is used to generate the hydrogen for the fuel cell?

Burning tires to fill fuel cells is counterproductive...

Not sure what they're doing in Korea. Likely a mix of SMR and electrolysis

Not a single person in today's hydrogen industry is talking about burning tires.
