answer text <p>The upgrade to the Midland Main Line, which includes electrification to Kettering and Corby, will enable increased passenger capacity and reduced journey times, as well as introducing a brand new fleet of bi-mode intercity trains from 2022. This will deliver improved journeys sooner and is part of delivering the biggest upgrade of the Midland Main Line since it opened in 1870. We will only electrify lines where it delivers a genuine benefit to passengers.</p> more like this
