I wonder what the net carbon impact of this is. Use of _reclaimed_ Carbon Dioxide, that could allow for trains to not do a start/stop which uses large amounts of fuel (or even just electricity that might have been generated using fuel).
Or would the trains have just stopped at their normal stop instead waiting for leaves to be cleared?
- namibj 4y agoThe trains would run slower or be cancelled entirely depending on whether they needed their adhesion to stop in time while going fast, in case traffic backed up and they'd be about to participate in a pile-up if they didn't stop fast enough, or whether they needed their adhesion to drive up/down slopes without slipping.
