NSWGR catenary stanchion and wire supports for single track, LH bridge

Catenary stanchion and wire supports in use by NSWGR in the mid 20th century to serve a single track on the Sydney suburban, Central Coast and Blue Mountains lines.
The height of the pickup wire above the railtop is 5.3m, midway within the NSW operating range of 4.75 to 5.8m. The stanchion is 3.75m from the track centre and on the left-hand side of the track in the direction in which the track was layed. The stanchion is supported at its base by a horizontal member that attaches to the side of a bridge girder 0.5m below track level.
The model meshes are based on those in a workbook provided by David Owen (davido). Thanks to David for sharing his work.
