The electrons are NOT the EM photonic waves. The electrons
are the carriers for the EM photonic waves. It is NOT the
electrons that have the transversal wave characteristics.
The movement of the electrons in the conductor is indeed
longitudinal but that movement is close to infinitesimally
small at RF frequencies. The movement is more like an
oscillation in place.
