I musta needed my head examined thinking it would be a quick thing to accomplish. I've got wires on every pole, sort of happy with the result. Need more poles though in a few areas. It does add a nice touch of realism to the overall layout when the line hangs just right. Too loose - and it looks really fake, but jus the right amount and the results look good. Hard to get a picture of though...since taking a shot of just the poles and lines doesn't convey the "total" look. When you look at the train, or layout as a whole, your eyes see past the lines yet you know they're there and it adds something. Check out this picture...you see the lines above the train, but hopefully you'll agree that they don't take your eye away from the focus of the shot. I do notice that with thread, in a closeup shot, you see too much tiny fibers. Next time, I'm going to use that EZ Line.
