Well, I still haven't got around to purchasing the catenary I have been promising my self however today I went one step closer and a quick look on gaugemaster brought up this!!!???





Is this a sign that the rest of the dapol catenary is on the way??

Errrr pass!!!

I have been looking for the dapol stuff but I dont thinl it will be out before my layout building starts.
I have decided on a different solution for my catenary, I am using sommerfelt H sections for the uprights and then having a look at what is been used on the WCML for moderisation and GWML for electrification  for the cross spans.
Then using that I am looking at 3D printing the spans with the final register arms probably been feom n gauge brass.
But it all deoends on what your trying to model my layout is very much a what if mix between Woodhead and HS2 well thats the plan

Dapol always promised the other bits, maybe they're going to finally deliver. I wouldn't hold my breath though to be honest. End masts and double masts sound good.

Hello,

I already have half of my layout with the Dapol NCAT1 catenary.

I was trying to order the last 4 packs from my continental shop, but the feedback that I got was:

"sorry, sold out, i think forever."




I could not find any pack left on UK web stores or eBay.


Is it really gone ?  :'( :'(
