Something I’ve wanted to do for awhile is string power lines along these well detailed utility poles. I’ve had an excellent product that I used on my previous layout which is called E-Z line which comes in multiple colors. I close green as a suggestion from somewhere I garnered from because of the better visibility factor. Not sure if that was really the case as the green line is basically hard to see, however power lines are now installed across the back of the layout. I am debating whether to string these across the poles along the front of the layout due to multiple switches I need to access plus uncoupling multiple cars with the power lines possibly being in the way and getting snapped or snagged! The stringing of these lines is pretty tedious work, but it does add to the realism for sure! Below is another photo showing the not so visible lines!
