Quite ambitious. WOuld have been bettr to propose extending to Springvale
Road, then when that's done (or underway) propose the next bit.

> * Extention of Rail Electrification  to South Morang

This has been proposed on and off for ~20 years. Is the right of way still
intact?

> * Extention of Rail Electrification to Craigieburn

Is it too much to hope that this would be electrification both ways?

> * Extention of Rail Electrification to East Cranbourne

This would have to be a new station. How far beyond the South Gippsland
Highway level crossing would it be?
