(...) Which ResQ set has the piece? I don't recall seeing it. The good thing is the box art clearly shows the piece, so that isn't one of the "minor changes", though I guess the box art might be wrong which would be a real bummer. (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.trains)

(...) No ResQ sets had it, it was in a Fire Station from 1994 or 1995. Jeff (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.trains)

(...) Strange name in my view as I see it as a electrical conductor rather than a holder on anything? The "Catenary" does make sense however - It is the shape of a curve which hanging cables form - well at least it is the shape of suspension bridge (...)

(...) The wire that this part contacts (in real life) is indeed catenary, but the proper name for the part, were it named functionally, (and that's a debating point in and of itself) is "pantograph shoe" because that's what its real counterpart is (...)
