How to Electrify a railroad

[Green_Elite_Cab]

well, i had to change one of the transmission arms on the catenary poles i just cut (the double wire-single arm), but i was able to clean it up and shape it straight again, looks fine, so I'll use it on future poles. that particular arm should be closer to 19' or 20' length to be proportionally right with the rest of my catenary transmission arms, so I'll just cut a new length. Basically, a double wire single arm transmission tower has the full distance between two wires on the arm, plus the usual distance between the wire and the pole (so that's 13' from wire to wire, and 6' from wire to pole, +1 foot to mount on the pole) No photos though, but that isn't so exciting anyway.
