>you need air to really hold it on the wire.

Ah no, the springs hold it on the wire. The air mechanism lower the pole if it comes of the wire, performing the same function of a [rope type] retriever. It's ironic that today's trolleybusses have a re-invented version of this type of base. I've seen them on trolleybusses in Wellington, NZ, and SF. Talk about overkill. The Muni's Marmons and Felxbles used O_B form 7's and Erall retrievers.
