Even if you did not meet your time deadline, your catenary looks to be coming along nicely! I'm not sure that I have ever seen anyone model a wire-style cross span in HO. It always seems to be the K-truss style, probably because they are a little more rigid in HO. But your's looks great!
Are you building your catenary poles to "Rubbo specifications" or are you using a mix of techniques? There is not very much info out there, so I'm sure you have to improvise sometimes.
Also, how do you guys connect your catenary wires when you put all of your modules together? I would imagine that you can't solder them. So how do you keep the pans from coming off the wire when you switch modules.
One last thing...do you have any pics from your group's setup at the East Penn meet? I would have liked to go but I had a conflict.
