    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

    enjoy :)

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