Objective: The article discusses the possibility of using hydrogen as a motor fuel for locomotives. Methods: The advantages and disadvantages of various types of the aggregate state of hydrogen for use as fuel are analyzed, as well as options for placing hydrogen fuel on board locomotives. Results: Possible ways of equipping locomotives with a supply of hydrogen fuel have been determined. Prac- tical importance: The use of hydrogen as a vehicle fuel is environmentally friendly. Considering op- tions for its application allows us to identify trends in the introduction of this fuel in the railway transport of Russia
