I can only think of the wire in the Warlord industrial bits,but very expensive,unless you really wanted the rest!

OK, You probably mean large wire rolls in the factory set - interesting what stuff they have available

but no, I expressed myself too complicated:
during my military time I saw that field telephone wire is still deployed by loading the wire roll on a signallers rucksack and having him run along the general direction.
So I was asking myself how in WW1 and before a small signaller unit would deploy their wire or transport it, maybe by mule or so. I was looking for a source picture of how this would look like

I guess I would be fine with one mule - I don't want to go company large.

Still recovering from the shots the Doctor advised me to have when travelling Oop North. 
My tailor also advised me that, to blend in, I needed to dress like the locals and sent me to JJB Sports Emporium.
I have my Passport, do I still need a Visa?

Visa definately, and if you get lost again a rear gunner may be advisable.
