Stop by our booth at Springfield to see the prototype. The catenary system will be available in N-Trak, 4-Track, 3-Track and 2-Track. Here is a sneak peak.

Oh god, please don't do a PRR version! I may not be able to withstand the temptation, and I'm already going to be throwing you a lot of money for signals!

"'Awesome.'

"Bryan is so happy he only got out one word."

Can't blame him... I am very glad myself, though I do not know if I will ever get to a place where I can use this (but still worth buying).  Hope you consider doing wire as well... there was a company in Japan (Ginga Models) that made some truly fine catenary but they mainly sold only in Japan and they haven't had much available for a couple of years now.

Bob, will you be in Springfield this year?
There's a shyness found in reason
Apprehensive influence swallow away
You seem to feel abysmal take it
Then you're careful grace for sure
Kinda like the way you're breathing
Kinda like the way you keep looking away

Very nice.  I gained a substantial interest in catenary in Europe and I think detailed etched towers would be fantastic.  Do you plan to introduce tensioners and other components?

If you are referring to Pull-Off Towers for curves, Yes.

I will also be doing Wire Hanger supports, Catenary Wire and a real possibility of Anchor Bridges. The Anchor Bridges COULD get pricey though since I would not sell very many of them. But they would look incredible.

I'm not going to answer Eric's question just yet until I get home. He should refer to pg2 and pg3 of an old TRW thread.

Awesome yet but someone now has to do some NH electrics to go with it.

Thanks, those would be very useful to set up a full catenary system.  This is a nice development and product.
