Morning Gents many thanks for your replies it is good to hear everyone’s views and have to admit it is all “ifs and buts “at the moment. I wish they had announced which train company they are working with Porterbrook seems the most obvious but again who knows .

worth keeping an eye on

Apologies for double posts gents for some reason it keeps happening that 1st one does not show up
Have a good evening gents some good debate today.

TP Group (AIM: TPG), the providers of mission-critical solutions for a more secure world, announces that it has signed a contract with a train leasing company to supply hydrogen fuel cell systems for passenger trains.

Looks more like a supply contract to me Truro ?

You make a very valid point Truro it looks like initially a consultancy role.
However in the latest RNS we seem to be taking on a far bigger role
“
TP Group is acting as the prime contractor for the integrated hydrogen fuel system, building upon the Group's preliminary consulting work to define system requirements and specify a suitable system configuration for safe operation in this application. The system will be deployed on a modified passenger train for a series of proving and demonstration activities.

Taken from RNS 17 th Sept
“ Phil Cartmell, Chief Executive Officer of TP Group, commented:

"We are very pleased to join the team working on the HydroFLEX project. Together, our three companies bring a wealth of specialist experience and technologies and are well placed to deliver innovative real-world solutions. Our joint goal is now to explore global opportunities for hydrogen-based transport solutions and to be an influential part of this rapidly growing market sector."

How on earth have they done this ?
