Definitely diesel!
Nothing worse than a diesel pulling up to a platform suffocating you!
Noisy and also an unhelpful contribution to our emissions.
Electrification is looking like it's picking up again.
cleaner, greener and quieter not to mention lighter,so it reduces track wear and tear too.
There is a cost to electrifying lines, large front loaded costs usually attempting to modernise a victorian railway which is obviously challenging.
The challange is also access to the railway, a small corridor and poor times that limit production.
The industry is working together to enable more efficient solutions to avoid large civil interventions and reduce costs of electrifying withing existing railway with great results.
And yes I'm biased to Electrification ?
