The world's only solar train

The world's first fully solar-powered train is operating in Byron Bay, Australia.

Key information:

* Train service: The train is operated by the non-profit organization Byron Bay Railroad Company.

* Solar power: The train gets its power from solar panels installed on the top of the train and on top of the station shed.

* Distance: The train runs for about 3 kilometers.

* Renewable: It is an old abandoned diesel train converted into a solar-powered train.

* Something else: The train has a regenerative braking system that charges the battery even when the braking system is used. When there is not enough solar energy, the train can also operate using electricity from the local grid.

This train helps reduce traffic congestion in Byron Bay and reduces carbon emissions. It is a great example of renewable energy.
