I know only one track is fully electrified to complete the loop. Part of the down line is, but not all of it from what I remember.
There's a daily Crosscountry run over the High Level Bridge, I've had that train ( 1S49 ) the past few times I've returned from Leeds on a daytrip. 1708 off Leeds for Dundee.
Its also booked for a double Voyager set, And is always busy between Leeds and Newcastle.
They do it for to keep Driver Knowledge of the route incase of a Diversion.
Another note is one set detaches at Newcastle Central as most passengers alight there, One set continues to Dundee and the other forms a service to Birmingham New Street later on.
