How to Electrify a railroad

[Green_Elite_Cab]

Thats a very nice looking layout you got going there. I love the catenary and it is something I would like to do someday. I know I looked into using some European catenary but eventually I like your route better as its more prototypical for the NEC.

Yeah, its taking time though. So far, i only get anything done when i'm not doing anything . Now with college in gear again, and the end of my summer taken out by a surprise sickness, i'm S O L on getting the catenary built much farther than it is. all my spare time is going towards finished other people projects (for which i will be well compensated, but still).

If you like, i DO have the Andy Rubbo articles which are pretty good at describing the process and giving scale sizes, so i could send them to you. If there are any discrepancies, we've discussed it either here or on AC_catenary's threads. other than some distances varying (some PRR documents says 18' transmission arms, others suggest 13'), its pretty much on target.
