Wayne, Chuck, Lukas, thank you for your replies. I found that adjustment of the wire height needed route editing for the poles, gantries and span wires, which is beyond what I am into as yet, so I settle for routes and cars which have the same height.I am comfortable with writing simple activities with AI traffic or editing *.ENG/*WAG files, but that is as far as I go at present.I run NGT8D trams (and PCC cars) on Linie 27(Berlin), Modern City Tramway, Number One Tramway and Tower City Tramway and now the marvellous STS cars on the Mesaba route. I found that the Blackpool trams, the Feltham trams and the B80D trams used a different wire height and that Linie 17 (Koln), Mountain City Tramway, Atlantic Coast Railway and the unsceneried Blackpool Route did not suit the NGT8D, but of course may suit the others.I have yet to explore more North American streetcars and interurbans and their routes, so there is plenty to look at.It would be great to see the wire height(s) mentioned in the download description before download.Hope I have not trod on any toes and I'm glad to see that some standardisation is already in place. Keep up the good work.Eric in UK

Actually, I've noticed some designers putting the set wire height into the descriptions.
