Scottish Enterprise, Transport Scotland and the Hydrogen Accelerator, based at the University of St Andrews, have appointed Arcola Energy and other hydrogen fuel-cell experts to deliver the project.  The project aims to transform the future of the rail industry at the home of Scotland’s railway heritage.
