Hydrogen seems sensible - you can make it on site (yes, you need a big

What, liquid hydrogen? How many litres is that for 500 miles?

Dont even go there. Hydrogen is enormously bulky and bloody dangerous.
Colorless, odorless, leaks out of any pipe that isn't perfect - teh
explosin at fukushinma was from far less than a car tank of hydrogen..

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will
eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such
time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic
and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally
important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for
the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the
truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
