The Rail Line Into London Gateway

I took this picture as my train to Stanford-le-hope passed the rail line into London Gateway.

The Rail Line Into London Gateway

It shows the double-tracked rail line into the port.

I would assume it will be electrified, when the main routes through London, like the Gospel Oak to Barking Line, are also fitted with overhead wires, so that freight trains can use efficient electric haulage.
