The South Shore was re-electrified at the time of the IC electrification. It had been an AC line.

The North Shore retained the same system throughout its life, and would have had to have rebuilt the overhead to use pantographs. With street running in Milwaukee and along the Shore Line, it might have had to have retained trolley poles for compatibility with streetcars.
