Right above you it explicitly states the trains are •electric• and not diesel. RTFA


As said: Electric trains are not emissions-free due to the brake dust.


By that measure nothing is emissions free, me walking down the road will generate a bit of rubber / asphalt dust.

Also regenerative braking... Trains are amazing


What is it with this thread? You're the second person to bring up the most wild stuff.

When I walk I kick up dust. And I breathe. I guess I'm also not emissions free even when I cycle? Brake dust and all that?
