The suspension of the first hydrogen-powered tram in China to be put into commercial operation has attracted attention. According to the "Gaoming Tram" official account, starting from August 6, the Gaoming Modern Tram Demonstration Line in Foshan City will be suspended, and equipment and facilities need to be arranged for maintenance.

The operating company of Gaoming Tram is Foshan Gaoming Modern Rail Transit Construction Investment Co., Ltd. (Gaoming Modern Rail Company). On August 9, a person from Gaoming Modern Rail Company told Jiemian News that they are currently conducting a systematic assessment and judgment, and a maintenance schedule will be available after the assessment results come out. "The equipment of the entire system has entered the maintenance period. The maintenance is for the track equipment, but not the trains."

Public information shows that the Gaoming Modern Tram Demonstration Line is the first urban rail transit project independently built and operated by Foshan City, and also the world's first commercially operated hydrogen-powered tram. It was put into operation in December 2019. The total investment of the project is 838 million yuan, and the total length is about 6.5 kilometers.
