With the increased range and viability of battery cars and buses (and hybrids) will a battery operated passenger train service ever become feasible ? What infrastructure changes (if any) would be necessary to accomodate battery trains ?
....and would scaling up a clockwork train to full size be possible ?
Developing efficieint versions of either should provide a greener alternative without the vast infrastructure costs of overhead wires or third rail - along with substations, bridge re-aligments etc.
