In the interest of truth and beauty here I should perhaps point out that the PRR signal bridge shown above (my model) was never used in conjunction with catenary wires because of the inherent conflict spacially between the wires and the bridge. The PRR used instead a modified catenary bridge for attaching its signals. I think you can still get it over at USLW: 106916:10417. There's a rusted and a painted version. Otherwise I love your work flusi, very ingenious kit bashing.
 
First of, thanks to amtrak, Cascade and Bob for the nice comments :D btw...it isnt that difficult to do this route - even if i am from germany, i already visited the whole NEC in reality ;)

Thanks for the info, since i try to re-build the NEC as prototypical as possible, i'll for sure replace that - if i could find the other signal bridge. I searched at USLW (surveyour object downloads), only the signal bridge in the pics above is there.

EDIT:

The difference isnt that great :p

And about the kitbashing...it is sadly needed since we dont have THAT much NEC content available :/

+ some pics (hostthenpost says 'Epic failure on your side...fy htp, now i use another provider!)
