The
Electrical power supply is important to operate our trolleys. We take
incoming 3-phase AC power and rectify it and to 600 Vdc current. The
DC power is then routed to our overhead wire. The return power is via
the running rails of the trolley line. We are also trying to make our
power poles look like an old trolley line complete with cross-arms
& insulators.
