Yeah I kinda thought so, I know usually the simplist solution is usually the best. I wonder why they went with hydrogen. Was money involved in this decision?
The trains will mainly run between Merced and Sacramento on Union Pacific track. That route is part of the second phase of California hsr, so after the LA - San Fransico part is built. For that the relativly cheap hydrogen infrastructure is propably cheaper, at least for three round trips per day right now. Long term it will be built properly.
