Stop spreading FUD. The risk of explosion is as as high as in gasoline powered cars, only H2 gets ventilated faster and burns without a visible flame.

The risk of gasoline 'explosion' (neither would be an explosion, it would be a fire) is higher with gasoline because its vapors are heavier than air and tend to pool on the ground and in structures.

An explosion is certain in case of collision with a train and the explosion might be powerful enough to unseat a train.
