I was clearing out the loft over the weekend and came across a box of train bits and pieces. Mainly it had lots of empty boxes, but in amongst them I was delighted to find a Tri-ang instruction leaflet on the Overhead Power Supply system. I wish I had had it when the R257 wasn’t working! Anyway, here is one of the illustrations which shows how the catenary system works better than I could!
The leaflet is actually based around the first catenary system Tri-ang introduced. This has catenary wire made to look like its suspended from a curving cable. The Catenary we’ve got is just a single, plain wire. However from what I’ve seen, the rest of the system is just the same.
