Key:catenary_mast:supporting

Describes in detail, how the catenary mast supports the overhead line of a nearby electrified railway. This key is used for masts which carry the overhead lines.

If the overhead line is directly attached to the mast (e.g. it's the last mast before electrification ends or a mast only for tensioning the wire), use catenary_mast:attachment=* instead.

Values

Note that if a mast supports multiple, use semi-colon separated values e.g. catenary_mast:supporting=cantilever;head_span.
