HC Deb 18 July 1939 vol 350 c217W
Mr. Parker

asked the Minister of Trans port what progress has been made with the electrification of the line from Liver pool Street to Shenfield; and when it is likely to be in operation?

Captain Wallace

I am informed by the London and North Eastern Railway Company that they are working to schedule on this line, and that they are keeping to this schedule. It is hoped that the new services will be introduced early in 1941.
