SBCTA FLIRT-H2 501 001  Contributor's Pick!       
The hydrogen tank are made of carbon fibres. Such a tank cannot explode. They are designed in such a way that a truck traveling at 75 kph / 47 mph can crash into the side of the train without being damaged. There are strict regulations of the approval authorities in the USA. However, if hydrogen escapes during loading, it escapes into the air, unlike diesel or petrol, which spreads out on the ground.
