Yep....electrified by the Midland Railway in 1908 at 6,600 volts AC - almost certainly the first overhead electrification in the UK. By the early 'fifties both the units and the overheads were worn-out, so BR decided to de-energise the original system and re-equip it as a test bed for the forthcoming West Coast mainline high voltage a.c.electrification. It was re-electrified at a mixture of 6.25 Kv and 25 Kv a.c. using mainly the original overhead gantries and stanchions and five ex-LNWR 1914-built three car 3rd and 4th rail EMUs - originally used on the Willesden Junction-Earls Court service - were re-equipped with new a.c. equipment and diamond-frame pantographs to work the service, which re-commenced in 1955 after a few years of steam substitution. These were the units which often ran in fine weather with their sliding doors wide-open. Following the Beeching Report, the Lancaster Castle - Lancaster Green Ayre and Lancaster Green Ayre - Morecambe Promenade sections were closed in 1966, along with the steam-worked ex-Midland line from Wennington. All traffic to and from Morecambe was switched to the ex-LNWR line via Bare Lane and the Heysham branch was dieselised. The old electric line between Lancaster and Morecambe became a walking and cycle path and if you look carefully amongst the undergrowth, you can still see the stumps of some of the OHLE.
