Cab: Thanks for the Welcome. There is a lot more action over here. Cant wait to see the signal arms and im also interested to see how your gonna do a signal tower. Did you get your silverliner Yet?
Heres some interesting stuff for you.. For extreme curves like the ones at Gap Pa The PRR took a page out of the NH book with triangular catenary.. also notice the verticle angle stock to hold the transmission lines on the curve. This would look really good on your layout.
