For placing lineside objects manually, when you have the object selected, you can hold Tab and mouse over the track you want to place the object next to. The object, in your case the catenary, will snap to be perfectly parallel to the track. This is usually extremely useful, but sometimes an asset won't be facing the way you want, in which case you'll have to rotate it the right way around manually.
As for crossings, there is no easy way to modify their properties. All crossings in TS are default to activate when a train is half a mile away, and the gates (if there are any) will go down and stop traffic at a quarter mile. If I recall correctly, someone was attempting to change the files for the crossings, but I don't know how well they got on. If your route is set in North America, then I recommend you download the Railworks Community Asset Project (RCAP). It's free and the crossings it comes with activate at a quarter mile instead of the default half a mile. Plus they look and sound better.
Thank you very much for the information. Definitely a shame about the crossings. May have to include less then ;) I'll take a look at that RWA pack.
That lineside objects advice is very helpful, thank you! I'll have a look at some point and get back to you.
Many thanks once again.
