The advent of my layout returning home following the sad passing of good WCML and model Rail enthusiast Ian Rae in September known to some here as amertonman, has seen my OLE plans changing somewhat.

The original plan was to be using nBrass and whilst this may still feature in some capacity, the main catenary sections are here and now going to be using ebay innovator blueflash90 whose catenary is available on ebay currently.

Tonight, having had my shipment of OLE and with Bill McAlpine (90028) in attendance I have mocked up how the new OLE will be positioned potentially. Given this is a Christmas present, I may not fully assemble this till then .. or not .. we shall see

The cantilevers will mirror the OLE seen immediately outside Crewe IEMD which is the inspiration for the layout.
