@big_b - Yes, I agree. That's why I put all my catenary on it's own layer.I find the worse case for me is when I'm laying Catenary in an area with loads of junctions and crossovers where you have to use the Catenary Wire only to try to join to
catenary spline with poles and wires and your trying to get the wire onto the end of the wire mounting arm

@pware - I used to think like that. But after working with the German cat systems, dissecting other route builders cat builds, making many cat pick lists and asking for help from Trainzers on this forum and trainz.de, I have changed my mind.pware
Catenary splines have always been a pain right back to their first appearance in Trainz. That proud tradition has continued on. My solution is to avoid modelling any railways that use them. That way I keep sane.
My thoughts.
Yes, cat systems are still super fiddly, but the end result is soooooo satisfying !
