Solar panels between railway tracks? (www.euronews.com)

I'm all for putting solar panels all over the place, but won't these get dusty and oily and need loads of cleaning after trains pass over?

Also, costing €623,000 over three years sounds rather expensive for just 100m (although that roughly equates to 11KW).

Wouldn't it be better to place panels on the train roofs?

Or, hear me out: on the roof of the train stations

Panels on the roof of everything, the roof of cars, the roof of buildings, the roof of your mouth...
