Each electric set also has a small diesel engine so it can get passengers to the next station in the event of de-wirement or power loss.</p><p> </p><p>In Control Period 5, Network Rail plan to spend £3 billion (in 2012-13 prices) on maintaining and renewing the London and North East Route, which includes the East Coast Main Line.
