Check the DLS for username "sonne03" - best stuff ever!

Sonne's catenary is excellent but is based on the mk3 variety . The catenary on the Shoeburyness route consists of mk1 style (search for username Melee on the DLS) from Shoeburyness to Gas Factory junction and woodhead 1500kv style from there into Fenchurch street (search for pgmetcalf on the DLS) though the insulators are incorrect as they are too small for 25 kv use.

Try this flickr set as it gives you a good selection of the overhead catenary types http://www.flickr.com/photos/walkinmycat/sets/72157610720102139/

Wow Nexus thanks for the very interesting info I live up north so didn't have a clue apart from what you can see from google earth and the occasional photo an downloading the OHLE now.

(btw and very off topic but are you a DJ - Every drummer interviewed since our last one f****d off can't keep time and now looking for a slightly different sound portishead / massive attack meets Floyd - interested?)

How much higher is the woodhead OHLE from the norm as when I get to Gas Works Junction I will have to adjust OHLE hights.
