Dismantling and installation of support structures and catenary

Route length

4 km

Short description

Catenaries and poles along a 4 km section were removed in their entirety. During breaks in train service and with the catenary switched on, the new poles were flown in and placed with high precision. It was eventually possible to rebuild the entire catenary within one and a half weeks in a concentrated construction process.
