Same for the Swiss, according to the natioanl railway company the results of their tests were “inconclusive”, but other operators of the Swiss network say that it depends on the exposure and other factors (but the challenge is keeping them clean, in a week they are already too dirty).

Sorry, but both Switserland and definitly the Netherlands are further North vs a significant percentage of the USA.
Bern, Switzerland is very close to the same latitude as Quebec City, CA or Fargo, ND, USA.
The Netherlands is even further North. Due to the lower angle of the sun hitting them they might get completely different results vs here in the South-Western USA.
Also weird in the article:
> Het aanbrengen is behoorlijk arbeidsintensief.
Really? How is driving a machine over the rail labor-intensive?
