Current crowding on transmission lines is an effect that won't be seen in a circuit simulator but can easily be shown in an electromagnetic simulation.  In the attached project AXIEM is used to simulate a simple microstrip line and animate the current.

The steps for using this project are contained in the Design Notes.  To view them just double-click on the Design Notes icon in the project tree.
