I've seen some extremely beautiful model railroad pictures that make me say "Is it real or another great model"? In most pictures that make me say this, I can determine by looking at the Telephone or power poles, the ones that do not have any cables turn my head. Are most modelers not including the cable due to the fact the cable might not be to scale, or is this an oversight? Being fairly new to the hobby (16 years, age 11-27 current), I notice most great model railroads have detailed poles with no cables. Maybe I have not payed close enough attention, but I'm curious why cabling does not exist on some models. Maybe a more experienced fellow modeler can shed some light on the dust in this shed.
