For the coupling of two parallel contact wires of an elastic contact line system with a rigid contact line system, which has a power track () and a contact wire () affixed thereon, an elongated cantilever () is provided in a transition area, whose rigidity increases in the longitudinal direction from the elastic contact line system to the rigid contact line system. The two contact wires () of the elastic contact line system are located along the cantilever parallel to the first contact wire (), which is, in turn, clamped over the entire length of the cantilever. All three contact wires () are affixed on several multiple clamps () in the area of the cantilever (), which clamps are located in a distributed manner along the cantilever. The multiple clamps () are located in recesses () of the cantilever.
