Ashort time ago we built the overhead line of the even track of the layout parade line. Now we are going to finish the work on the odd track.
The construction of the poles is fully described here. Let’s assemble the eight poles we need.
After applying a Tamiya primer we airbrush the poles, apply decals and weather them. The poles are ready for intallation.
The longer poles for the viaduct are fixed to the structure with 1.5 mm screws.
This is the final result after the assembly of the catenary.
Two shots showing poles and some details.
A short test with the ETR610 with a raised (modified) pantograph.
