It would probably be simpler to use regenerative braking like a hybrid car. The trains are already electric.

- cjrp 9y agoIt says in the article they convert some of the heat caused by braking, but I thought regenerative braking meant you also didn't have to brake as much.
- jdmichal 9y agoYour don't have to engage friction-based brakes as much, yes. And since friction-based brakes work by converting movement to heat, that's why regenerative braking helps with heat.
