Solar (and battery) powered train in Byron Bay (in North East New South Wales, Australia for those unfamiliar with Australia). It's converted from diesel.
While the train has solar panels on it's roof, it also gets charged at stations which have solar panels on them too.
Here's a video of it.

Is it time to consider the once-unthinkable, breaking up?

Some say
I’m born when mermaids sing,
And echo through a coral shell.
Some say
I bloom like June,
When clouds begin to clear.
Some say
I hum with hope,
While ducks in boots write love notes.
I am
the courage
that turns wishes into miracles…
