Catenary works in Horrem (on Cologne-Aachen) on 16 December 2001. The catenary
is built while the track is still partly missing. So the work train with the
drums of wire is parked at the end of the track, and the contact wire is pulled
into place by a skylift that can operate from another track, too. A second
skylift assists near the train. The brackets are equipped with pulleys for this
operation. The messenger wire is already in place.
