Wonderful, shot, Graeme.

That tram's got a long ways to go.

Subject: [TramsDownUnder] Flexible tram overhead in New Plymouth

New Plymouth had an early version of flexible overhead on the tramways.

From the span wire fitting, two light wires about 2 feet long dropped down to the trolley wire forming as it were, a triangle.

I hope the following two pictures will show what I mean.

The view in the City is from the Alexander Turnbull Library NZ.
