hai there,
(i suck at english, apologies in advance)
since the trains and zepelins mod now "support" the IC2 wires as fuel source for the electric trains, i decided to build an electric railway.
in case if u dont know that mod: the electric locos currently not detected as EU consumers, so the catenary must be live - as in the real world
solved this problem pouring current from one MFSU to an another, and then back
using FC wires and 80 blocks per section -> 2 EU loss per wire, this loss is compensated by 2 solar, as u will see at phase breaks
building a phase break, feeder wires at both sides of the rail
overpass in "the city"
test ride
u can find more images about the project at

enjoy
problems with design:
- line is too long, must use chunk loaders
- loss is maintained only at daytime
