I'm interested to see how this turns out, because I'm thinking this would significantly increase maintenance costs on those panels due to rocks being kicked up, vibration from the train, etc.

Maybe it’s like a blanket that the train picks up over its head and runs underneath, setting it back down on the ground after it
