How to Electrify a railroad
#81
Not necessarily useful for my Pennsy electrification, but at $5.00 a pole, these Catenary towers by Imagine That! Laser Art Products, are definitely worth it for anyone considering a free-lanced electric operation.

They are similar in style to the New Haven catenary, and I've seen similar structures in some Chicago suburban lines and the St. Clair tunnel electrification (a subsidiary of the Grand Trunk).

In fact, the only issue I see is that they appear to be single track structures, where a multiple track structure might be more appropriate for a suburban line.

However, given that this company also offers individual components, one might be able to kitbash such a structure seemlessly.
