Whifflet route electrification
Source: Ricp
This is the RIGHT priority for electrification, as it is wiring up sections which should have been wired up ages ago. It means a very simple wiring up project means another service using the underutilised Glasgow Central Low line to provide a better service through Dalmarmock for the 2014 Games.
It is blindingly obvious to everyone other than an ill-informed politician whingeing about EGIP where priorities have changed.
Once EGIP via Falkirk High is completed, the link into Grahamston from both Cumbernauld and Croy will be a simple infill, from which the Stirling Line is the logical extension.
This scheme releases at least 7 urgently needed DMUs with a more efficient use of electric units. Simple!
