Fuel efficiant diesel trains truly are climate heroes. One power unit to haul shitloads of payload across whole countries instead of thousands of trucks

@@tripwire3992 And what does that have to do with climate? Or do you believe CO2 is heating the planet. (and making the UK wetter)

@@ducthman4737the co2 is heating the planet because it’s a greenhouse gas also climate change doesn’t necessarily mean warmer; it makes the weather more extreme, thus more storms and rain as well as heating up the planet

@@DownTheFlank CO2 is just the scapegoat for what is really going on. CO2 is at 400 ppm just 0.04 % of the atmosphere and the human part just a 0.012 % . Every time you exhale 5% of your breath is CO2 = 50,000ppm. What really is going on is Earth's magnitic field strenght has been weakening. Therefore we have less protection from the Sun what enables more radiation to reach the surface and to penetrade deeper in the oceans. Earth's temperature is Ocean heat storage and atmosperic pressure (it's colder higher up the mountain) . Did you know that Hippos swam the river we today call Thames about 130 thousend years ago during the Eemian interglaciation period? The planet was some 3 degrees to 5 degrees C (5 degrees to 9 degrees F) warmer during the Eemian period than it is today. But if you want to believe it's CO2 feel free to do so.

It's running on Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil instead of diesel as an experiment with biofuels. As a result it emits up to 90% less emissions than diesel would.

Its a locomotive that looks good and can pull alot. Not boring at all

Well this is the first fully accurate one with features to boot at a good price. What’s not to love!?
