You quite often see discussed here the idea that electrification costs have increased sharply vs BR days because of the relative drought in new projects between c1995 and 2010, which led to a collapse in skills.
All that seems reasonable: but with electrification projects now having been ongoing essentially continuously since 2010, how has the skills base and supply chain developed, and are we at a point where the industry once again has the experience to be delivering major cost savings?
Or if not- was the whole argument about the 1995-2010 electrification drought flawed?
