Oh, I don't discount the leverage magic that gears/winches/differentials/transmissions provide...just pointing that electric motors are preferred over ICE in certain commercial applications (including trains).
And yes, the outrageous power density required for the battery packs to power locomotive electric motors is a giant challenge. And then the hurdle of obtaining sufficient power generation abilities from hydro/solar/wind sources to charge said batteries. And don't get me going about how wrong Thacker Pass open mining operations for lithium is for the environment and the area's indigenous peoples.
All in the name of "climate change".....(shakes head).
