I was interested to read that the Lancaster to Heysham and Morecambe line was electrified in 1908. The branch from Morecambe to Lancaster closed in 1966 (another route remains open), but the Heysham to Morecambe line is still open.
I was wondering if the electrification equipment remained in place once electric traction stopped, and how difficult it would be to re-electrify the route? (I realise that Lancaster to Heysham electrification is probably decades away)
