The majority of the commuter lines in the Chicago area are diesel-electric push-pull operations like the video; the trains can be operated from either end. The two electric lines are the old Illinois Central which runs south about 30 miles from downtown (with a couple of branches that reach neighborhoods) and the South Shore, which uses the same tracks but then turns east into Indiana, serving South Bend, about halfway across the state.
Yes, on the East Coast between Boston, New York and Washington. One long electrified freight operation out west on the Milwaukee Road was removed about 1974.
you don't have electrified line?
