Hello all,
I realize there aren’t many “juice jacks” out there in this scale, but I was wondering if someone happened to know what the distance from the railhead to the pickup wire?
Thanks,
Mike.
The LGB catenary here , measures about 9" betwwen railhead and the cat wire . Which reqires spacers to gain more height to reach the wire , on a HLW Sparky , look see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=759emOOjGnk The HLW interurban ‘just’ reaches the wire http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkjhCvL7FOQ The Bachmann streetcar with a HLW pantagraph reaches the wire http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArhTd2GaHG8 And of course the LGB electrics reach the wire perfectly , as usuall !
Oh my Dennis, that is really excellant. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Dennis, this is of great help.
Mike
