KATO catenary support on single track viaduct 20-400

[JanW]

Dear Japanese train modelling enthusiasts,

 

Happy New Year to you all!

 

I have a question to you. I need to add catenary supports to a single track viaduct made up with the KATO 20-400 viaducts and the 23-017 piers (as shown below). The packaging of these items does not give me any clue on how to fix the catenary supports to these piers.  Does any of you know of a clever way of doing it? 

 

Kind regards,

Jan

Hi jan,the single track catenary fixes to the support piers,if I remember correctly I think you need to remove the unijoiner,put the catenary base on and then replace the unijoiner,let me kno if you sort it out,if not I ll go in the shed and check mine mate.

Hi jan,

yeah,remove the unijoiner like this,

Put the catenary holder into the support pierand replace the unijoiner,it takes a bit of jiggling about but you ll soon get it once you actually do it,then put the mast into the holder.

Hope this helps mate,

paul

Many thanks Paul, 

 

Indeed this is the solution I was looking for. I wasn't paying proper attention because the set of pole bases shows this as well! 

 

many thanks mate!

I've got loads of those bases unused as they seem to multiply when the lights are out. The level track bases. Well they just seem to go into hiding.
