I say eventually because it looks like all electrification projects seem to be slowing losing time now.

This line can at times suffer from the fact that only one train can be on the line at any one time and this does preclude any service frequency increase in this increasingly popular tourist area.

Not all electrification projects. Rutherglen to Whifflet was delivered on time and emus have been working the line since last month.
