The Manchester-Preston line will be electrified from December 2017 and the Preston-Blackpool line will be electrified from early 2018.

(see https://www.networkrail.co.uk/North_West...tion.aspx)

I forgot to say that from now until December 2017, there will be 17 class 319 in activity and 11 spare.
