The Hudson Line is the obvious candidate for electrification, but they would need cooperation with Amtrak to get overhead wire up, and new railcars, and all that, so it wouldn't be a cheap endeavor. The New Haven Line and the Harlem Line are all set, so that just leaves the Danbury to New Milford. The Waterbury branch doesn't need electrification. |
