Dear Brian,
I would contact George Huckaby at Custom Traxx:
www.customtraxx.com
He is a font of streetcar information, and has developed an excellent trolley pole.
He was involved with a spectacular trolley layout exhibited in Del Mar.
Have fun!

Thanks for info but they look a little fragile for on 30
Thank you Bachmann for the info
One question you did not answer was what duameter trooley wire is suitable to fit the roller on the top of the trolley pole on the De Witt car
You can answer with either the wire dianeter or gauge size be it  AWG (AAmerican ) or SWG (Standard ) wire gauge   being more international I would prefer to us something easiely available in the ukrather than get involved in International mail order
After all Bachmann has a subsidery in the UK

agaun thanks

Dear Brian,
I have never done overhead wire modeling, but George is an accomplished master. If you email him he'll be happy to help.
Have fun!
