Catenary
Prototype goes electric ... and the locos on your layout? Now, it is easy, to build your own catenary. Use our rtr-poles or use parts from our program, to construct your special catenary-system. For full details look at german catenary-page.
Please excuse us, but we are so busy that we can no longer update all the English language pages. Please visit the German pages and use a translation machine if necessary. Thank you for your understanding.

| Now, here is the best choice for building your own RhB-prototypical catenary. The rtr-poles are build from Sommerfeldt, with N-Track parts added for best appearance. | |||||

Hint: You can use the poles for most of the prototypical situations. The catenary-wire is glued or soldered to the registration arms in zig-zag type. The carrying wire is glued or soldered on top of the arm (e.g. with the rounded ones) or inside the arm (e.g. the straight arms). It keeps the catenary-wire allways on tension. So one time you use the outside holder, the next is the inside holder, and so on. When everything works, just cut off the unneccessary parts. The filigrane parts are not recommended for real work. For detailed information, you should have a look into the excellent brochure of Sommerfeldt. |

| poles and traverses - kits | |||||
| Poles and traverses are the base for a solid catenary. You will find here the excellent parts of Sommerfeldt- and N-Track for your own constructions. | |||||

traverse, 2 pieces, 2 tracks, 69 mm long, ready bended |
|
||
| Nm-Y00031 |  |
traverse, 2 pieces, 3 tracks, 99 mm long, ready bended |
|

|
||
| Nm-Y00033 sold out |  |
traverse, 2 pieces, 6 tracks, 196 mm long, not bended |
|
||
| Nm-Y00034 sold out |  |
traverse, 2 pieces, 250 mm long for your individual constructions, not bended |
|
||
| Nm-Y00390 |  |

|
||
Hint: You need poles for nearly every kind of fixture. Only rare situations are known, when the catenary is fixed at a building or another point. For more than one track, traverses are used. The long ones are not bended yet, but it is easily done, because the bendingline is etched into the part. |
