Ottawa LRT

Fair enough. But "people that do renderings" may also be inclined to skip the OCS in the render as it will make the image cleaner ...

Depending on the nature of the rendering, the actual wires may legitimately be invisible. I heard of people (this is in Ottawa, where a lot of the anti-LRT sentiment is about as educated on the issue as most of ours) complaining about a small presentation image missing the wires, then booing when told they are actually there just not visible at that scale. Then a perceptive audience member sees the same image much bigger, maybe on a presentation board, and sure enough, the wires are there.

Having said that, in the image at hand, I don’t see any evidence of poles or support arms holding up the OCS. That seems sloppy to me.
