I know the question has been asked here before as I searched the
archives however most of the threads seem to go way back.

So, I'm currently planning an OO layout and would like to incorporate
overhead catenary.

I have no desire for this to be working catenary as I'm planning for
DCC. I just want something that looks good (right) and is off the
shelf and relatively easy to put up.

Any recommendations?

You might like to have a look at
http://www.nbrasslocos.co.uk/catenary4mm.html I know nothing about it
except that what I've seen at exhibitions looks good.

Hi Allan,
If you want to get a good looking and possibly working catenary's system,
I will more than likely get flamed for this, but here goes, the Hornby
system is reasonable, although nowadays hard to get, but it works as I
found out years ago on a 4-track figure of 8 layout. Only trouble was the
frequency interrupted my neighbours Sky TV.

If you would like more info please reply
