The Zero Emission Multiple Unit train, called ZEMU, is the first of its kind in North America, using hybrid hydrogen and battery technology to power the train.

A self-powered, zero-emission passenger train has arrived at the San Bernardino Depot Train Station and will be ready for riders next year. It will transport passengers on already established rail lines, between the cities of San Bernardino and Redlands.Its water vapor emissions inspired the eye-catching blue and white design, wrapped around the train's two passenger cars and center power pack where the hydrogen and battery propulsion system is located.

'It's been a lot of work to get here, a lot of partners, a lot of collaboration to do that. We expect it to have it in service by next year.' ZEMU has undergone testing since its arrival in late June, including trips on the Arrow line and Metrolink system checks. Arrow launched in October 2022 and is a 9-mile passenger rail service between Redlands and San Bernardino.
