Orlen rozpoczął testy lokomotywy napędzanej wodorem, kupionej od Pesy. To pierwszy taki pojazd w Polsce. Do 20230 roku paliwowy gigant planuje przeznaczyć 7,4 mld zł na inwestycje w technologie oparte na odnawialnych źródłach energii.
First hydrogen locomotive started working in Poland.
Modern trains are almost exclusively electric final drive, off the top of my head I can’t think of any exceptions. There are so many different voltages of overhead pantographs and drive motors though, there is almost always some type of converter needed to provide the right voltage to the drive motors.

Overhead wires aren’t 3-phase, so convertor is required anyway.
A lot of locomotion uses DC motors, so they can run line voltage directly.
And what operational voltage of such motor?
1.5KV DC is reasonably common for commuter rail.
1.5KV doesn’t sound like operating voltage of DC motor. Maybe you wanted to say BLDC instead?
